They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom |
|
For trying to change the system from within |
|
Im coming now Im coming to reward them |
|
First we take Manhattan then we take Ber-lin |
|
Im guided by a signal in the heavens |
|
Im guided by this birthmark on my skin |
|
Im guided by the beauty of our weapons |
|
First we take manhattanthen we take berlin |
|
Id really like to live beside you baby |
|
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes |
|
But you see that line there moving through the station? |
|
I told you I told you told you |
|
I was one of those |
|
Ah you loved me as a loser |
|
but now youre worried that I just might win |
|
You know the way to stop me |
|
but you dont have the discipline |
|
How many nights I prayed for this |
|
to let my work begin |
|
First we take manhattan then we take berlin |
|
I dont like your fashion business mister |
|
And I dont like these drugs that keep you thin |
|
I dont like what happened to my sister |
|
First we take manhattan then we take berlin |
|
Id really like to live beside you baby |
|
And I thank you for those items that you sent me |
|
The monkey and the plywood violin |
|
I practiced every night now Im ready |
|
First we take manhattan then we take berlin |
|
I am guided |
|
Ah remember me I used to live for music |
|
Remember me I brought your groceries in |
|
Well its fathers day and everybodys wounded |
|
First we take manhattan then we take berlin |
