A song by the german new wave band "Falco". Also, a very well known term at the time for cocaine... which is what the song is supposed to be about secretly.
new wave raver: "Dude, have you heard that song by Falco 'Der Kommissar's in Town'?"
-or-
cokehead: "Dude, Der Kommissar's in town, bust out your coke straws!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!"

The name of a song by an alternative London rock band from the 1980's called "After The Fire". Der Kommissar was composed by Andy Piercy, Falco (invented the song) & Robert Ponger. Der Kommissar was the last single released by the band. The single was a worldwide hit! The correct German-to-English translation of Der Kommissar is "The Commissioner". There are at least 3 different versions of this song and all of them are about the same things... friends with money and power, drugs (snow for the nose), eluding the police, and finally arriving at death.
Don't turn around, Der Kommissar is in town.
...translation...
Oh crap. The cops are coming. Don't let it be obvious you are stoned. Try to act sober and get out of their sight.

Zwei, drei, vier, one, two, three, it's easy to see
But it's not that I don't care, so
'Cause I hear it all the time, but they never let you know
On the TV and the radio (cha!)
She was young, her heart was pure, but every night is bright she got
She said, "sugar is sweet", she come a-rappin' to the beat
Then I knew that she was hot
She was singin'
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja, ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
You're in his eye and you'll know why
The more you live, the faster you will die
Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?
She said, "Babe, you know I miss Jill and Joe
And all my funky friends"
But my street understanding was just enough to know what she really meant
And I got to thinking while she was talking
That I know she told the story
Of those special places that she goes
When she rides with the others in the subway singin'
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
And if he talks to you and you don't know why
You say your life is gonna make you die
Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?
Well, we meet Jill and Joe and brother Herr with the whole cool gang and, oh
They're rappin' here, they're rappin' there, but she's climbin' on the wall
It's a clear case, Herr Kommissar
'Cause all the children know
They're all slidin' down into the valley
They're all slipping on the same snow
Hear the children
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
He's got the power and you're so weak
And your frustration will not let you speak
La, la, la, la, la, la
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
And if he talks to you, then you'll know why
The more you live, the faster you will die
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
(Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?)
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh
Don't turn around, oh oh oh
(Ja ja) Der Kommissar's in town, whoa oh oh

A club where several people form a team and goose step to the song "Der Kommissar" by the late Austrian rock star Falco. This is accomplished by use of a designated boombox carrier (see gimp) and a marching group. Membership in the club is highly restrictive, and their rights of passage are largely unknown. It is likely that the mystique of the Der Kommissar Klub will remain well into this century.
"Oh shit man, here comes the Der Kommissar Klub, they are so awesome. Everyone step aside! Make way for the gimp!"
