K.U.K. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh
It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh, say bye bye
Where you going to now

Lightning flashes across the sky
East to west, do or die
Like a thief in the night
See the world by candlelight

Fall, rise and fall, rise and
Fall, rise and fall, rise and

In an apartment on Time Square
You can assemble them anywhere
Held to ransom, hell to pay
A revolution everyday
USSR, GDR, London, New York, Peking
It's the puppets, it's the puppets
Who pull the strings, yeh

Fall, rise and fall
Fall, rise and fall

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye

It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh
Push the button and pull the plug
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh

Fall, rise and fall
Fall, rise and fall

And they're doing the atomic bomb
Do they know where the dance comes from
Yes they're doing the atomic bomb
They want you to sing along
Say goodbye, say goodbye




Say goodbye
Say goodbye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to K.U.K.'s song "20.000" seem to be about the aftermath of a breakup. The singer has been without their partner for 20,000 seconds, which is roughly 5 and a half hours. They are counting the time that's passed, but also trying to find motivation to move forward. They list several reasons to get up and do something but are struggling to find the energy to do so. The singer is yearning for someone to take care of them, give them food, and remind them of the good in the world, but ultimately they want their former partner back.


The second verse focuses on the singer's surroundings and how their perception of them has changed since the breakup. They notice little details like the colors and texture of rain, but they are also preoccupied by an "ugly little stain" on the bathroom floor. This could symbolize the way that the singer's worldview has been tainted by the breakup. They would rather be somewhere else, perhaps floating in space or focused on larger issues like the ozone layer, than dealing with the mundane and painful aspects of life without their significant other.


The bridge of the song takes a more reflective tone. The singer acknowledges that we can all seem strong and successful when things are going well, but when love is far away, we can feel small and powerless. Despite this, the singer seems to find some comfort in the fact that all they really need is themselves.


Overall, "20.000" is a deeply introspective song about the aftermath of a breakup. The singer is struggling to find motivation and sees the world as a less colorful place without their partner. Despite this, they are finding ways to cope and reminding themselves of the power they still hold within themselves.
