Mokattam and the Moqattam Hills, (Arabic: المقطم), also Muqattam and Moqattam Mountain, is the name of a hill range and a suburb in them, located in southeastern Cairo, Egypt.
The Arabic name Mokattam, which means "cut up" in English, refers to how the low mountain range of hills is divided into three sections. The highest segment is a low mountain landform called Moqattam Mountain. In the past the low mountain range was an important ancient Egyptian quarry site for limestone, used in construction of the temples and pyramids.
The hills are in the region of ancient Fustat, the new capital founded by 'Amr ibn al-'As after the Arab conquest of Egypt in 642 CE. A section of the Mokattam Hills contains Muqattam, an affluent suburb of Cairo. Other sections have slums. The Zabbaleen people, who are an integral part of collecting and processing Cairo's municipal solid waste, live in Manshiyat Nasser, Garbage City, at the foot of the Mokattam Hills.
Moqattam is the name of a documentary film about the garbage collecting Manshiyat naser village and its Zabbaleen people, directed by Jehane Noujaim.
When the great number seven completes itself
Games begin at the tomb side
Not far from the turn of the millennium
The dead will rise out of their graves
Visions of things to come, visions of things undone
Visions, immortality, visions, reality
Visions of prophecy, visions of lunacy
Visions beyond the grave, visions behold the name
Near the gates and inside two cities
Two hitherto unimaginable scourges will occur
Hunger and plague within
Outside people are put out to the sword
They will call for help from immortal God
Visions in red, visions of nightmare
Visions of your soul, visions of your world
Visions, the sky, visions, the night
Visions of screams, visions of dreams

People waste time, gotta make time
They ain't got no place to go, C'mon now
I try to make time in my own life
But you're moving way too slow to catch up now
And when it comes down to opinion exactly where I stand
And if it comes down to religion I worship my old man
So c'mon now, it's alright
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
'Cos when I hit the groove I get the feeling
I stand up and show I'm self believing
Lord, Lord
Your trying to swallow up all your dad's pills
But they won't set you free it's a let down
And I'm the only man here can do that dear
Come see and you'll believe it's alright
You see a man's gotta know his limitations
you take it just so far
And if it comes down to the nation
I'll be your superstar
So c'mon now, it's alright
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
'Cos when I hit the groove I get the feeling
I stand up and I show I'm self-believing
Lord, Lord
Lord, Lord
You say you wanna be the one
But still you leave the job undone
You only call me when you're free
But you know that it ain't good enough for me
You're always dippin' with your friends
As if you're ????
And know your knockin' on my door
Well I guess you were too busy before
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Can't you see
Show me I got everything you need
Everything
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Ecstasy
Show me I got everything you need
Fantasy
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time
There's other places I can be
If you're not there
You might see
Me out there with somebody else
If you do
You can only blame it on yourself
I'm feeling you without a doubt
But I know I can do without
So don't you call me on the phone
Late at nite when you don't wanna be alone
Don't wanna be part-time lovers (don't wanna be your part-time lover)
It's gotta be one or just another
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Can't you see
Show me I got everything you need
Everything
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Ecstasy
Show me I got everything you need
Fantasy
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time
Gonna have to show me (gonna have to show me)
If you wanna be my one & only (if you wanna be my one & only)
You're gonna have to prove it to me (prove it)
Don't wanna be part-time lovers (I don't wanna be no, no)
It's gotta be one or just another
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Can't you see
Show me I got everything you need
Everything
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time
You better make time if you wanna be with me
Ecstasy
Show me I got everything you need
Fantasy
You better think twice if you wanna be with me
Next to me
If you wanna take a ride
You better make the time

Make time when there is none, for the sea
I'll keep on living incomplete,
As long as I still wake up from my dreams.
They'll see the end of our own street,
We don't make time where there is none, move your feet!
I'll build you a boat out of lightning and fill it with pearls, we'll float worlds end and touch in return just to prove the impossible possible; sure you'll be there where our time comes.
You feel the same thing we're waiting and waiting, and stop, I feel faint from accepting this terrible loss in time you thought you'd say its just gone; we'll make time when there is none!
Build you a boat with big diamonds and fill it with stars, hear the base drums so far off. Be there tomorrow get some rest all that's left a few hundred miles we'll make time when there is none!
You feel the same thing we're waiting and waiting, and stop, I feel faint from accepting this terrible loss in time you thought you'd say its just gone; we'll make time when there is none!
