German electro rappers Deichkind (German for: Dyke (not the lesbian connotation) child) with their song Limit.
As you may pick up, the text doesn't make that much sense and even less now, that I've butchered it and removed the rhymes, but I hope you enjoy the tune anyway.

* #1 = To have a buzzing skull, can also mean being hungover.
* #2 = Sebi was the name of the rap group's now late producer.
* #3 = St. Pauli is the name of an infamous red light district in Hamburg, Germany.

Corrections are welcome.

My English translation:
Check this out, the styles of those who go crazy
You are extreme. Extreme like a bomb, just like taekwando
We're bringing the proper show
It all depends on when the house starts quaking, 'cus
These kids aren't leaving the biz
The best output from the dudes living by the dyke
Microphone check: one, two, one, two
Chic women boucing to the phat beats
In the hood it's happening inside the jeeps
You're flying in tall arches
We've got the tickets to the above
What's up with all the Average Joes?
We're handing out sandwiches and making no bullshit
Am I through with... It's time for flying
Oh my God, just how tight are those guys?

Where am I?
Already at the limit?
P-O-W to the E to the R
And all over again 'til you pop
Am I...
... already at the limit?
Jump in and buckle up, 'cus nothing can stop us now

Going to the limit with no crash helmet
Could you even imaging that?
No problem for us, 'cus our skulls are buzzing*
When Sebi* pumps phat beats into your veins
Every word is mighty
record-breaking
'cus I'm sending all the haters straight to their beds
Get in and sit down
We're going to the limit, but please behave yourself
Am I already there or am I losing it?
I can't even believe it,
What's being dished up here?
After all those raw veggies
comes the main course
The sound is phat
Turn that shit up! Even more!
The neighbour is bothering you already,
Hah, he's supposed to
Forget the standard,
Party 'til you drop
Here comes the sound, that's branding you ear-drum
You can't stop the machine
Even less with bare hands

Where am I...

We've thrown a phat beat together
4/4 bar
Now people are joining in
BOOMbastic
Like our super bass
Good night!
When we come it's like having a
Sperm-built up in St. Pauli*
Phat BOOMs are coming from the Audi
Watch out! Here comes the big wave
Just like at Maui Maui
Let's bounce to sounds
Rhymes so phat,
You almost can't believe it
Now you getting send up!
Tell us when you reach the top

The actual German lyrics:
Check das mal, die Styles von denen
Die geh'n gut ab, du bist extrem
Extrem like a bomb, wie bei Taekwando
Wir bringen die korrekte Show
Alle drauf komm'n bis das Haus beb'n, weil
diese Kids aus dem Biz nich' mehr rausgehen
Beste Leistung von den Typen die am Deich wohn'
Mikrofoncheck: eins, zwo, eins, zwo
Schicke Frauen bouncen zu den fetten Beats,
auf'm Kiez, in den Jeeps da geschieht's
Du fliegst im hohen Bogen
Wir ham' die Tickets nach oben
Was ist los mit dem ganzen Durchschnitt?
Wir geb'n Stulle und machen kein' Bullshit
Bin ich durch mit...
Es is' Zeit zum fliegen
Oh mein Gott,
wie tight sind sie denn?

Refrain:

Wo bin ich?
Schon am Limit?
(P-O-W zum E zum R
nach vorne bis zum Gehtnichtmehr)
Bin ich schon am Limit?
(Setz dich hin und schnall dich an, weil uns jetzt nichts
mehr halten kann)

Geh'n ans Limit ohne Sturzhelm
kannst du dir das bidde ma' vorstelln'?
Kein Problem für uns,
denn unser Schädel brummt,
wenn Sebi dicke Beats in deine Vene pumpt
Jedes Wort ist mächtig,
rekordverdächtig,
weil ich alle Leute,die meckern, sofort ins Bett schick'
Steig ein und setz dich hin,
wir gehn' ans Limit
Aber bitte benimm dich
Bin ich schon da oder spinn ich?
Ich glaubs ja nich',
was wird hier aufgetischt?
Nach der ganzen rohen Kost
kommt das Hauptgericht
Der Sound is' dick,
dreh auf den Shit! Noch doller!
Nachbar beschwert sich schon,
tja,soll er
Vergiss den Standard,
Party bis zum Anschlag
Hier kommt der Sound der dein Trommelfell brandmarkt
Du kannst das Gerät nich' bremsen
Schon gar nich' mit bloßen Händen

Refrain

Wir ham'n dicken Beat hingeklatscht
4/4 Takt
Jetzt wird mitgemacht
BOOMbastisch
wie unser Superbass
Gute Nacht!
Wenn wir komm'n dann tut sich was
Samenstau wie auf St.Pauli
Dicke BOOMS komm'n
aus'm Audi
Achtung! Hier kommt die dicke Welle
wie auf Maui Maui
Lass bouncen zum sounden
so fette Raps
Kaum zu glauben!
Du wirst jetzt da hochgeschickt!
Sag Bescheid,
wenn du oben bist.
