Lyrics

[00:14.90] They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
[00:22.59] For trying to change the system from within
[00:30.33] I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
[00:38.49] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
[00:49.45] I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
[00:57.23] I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin
[01:04.98] I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
[01:13.12] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
[01:24.38] I'd really like to live beside you, baby
[01:30.77] I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
[01:39.48] But you see that line there moving through the station?
[01:47.25] I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those
[01:58.57] Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
[02:06.64] You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
[02:14.27] How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
[02:22.20] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
[02:33.74] I don't like your fashion business mister
[02:41.37] And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
[02:48.99] I don't like what happened to my sister
[02:56.74] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
[03:08.02] I'd really like to live beside you, baby
[03:14.46] I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
[03:23.14] But you see that line there moving through the station?
[03:31.12] I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those
[03:42.28] And I thank you for those items that you sent me
[03:50.36] The monkey and the plywood violin
[03:57.86] I practiced every night, now I'm ready
[04:05.83] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
[04:21.14] Ah remember me, I used to live for music
[04:28.76] Remember me, I brought your groceries in
[04:35.83] Well it's Father's Day and everybody's wounded
[04:44.27] First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
