|
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom |
|
For trying to change the system from within |
|
I'm coming now I'm coming to reward them |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
|
I'm guided by a signal in the heavens |
|
Guided by this birthmark on my skin |
|
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
|
I'd really like to live beside you, baby |
|
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes |
|
But you see that line they're moving through the station |
|
I told you, I told you, I told you I was one of those |
|
You loved me as a loser but now your worried that I just might win |
|
You know the way to stop me but you don't have the discipline |
|
How many nights I prayed for this to let my work begin |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
|
I don't like your fashion business, mister |
|
I don't like these drugs that keep you thin |
|
I don't like what happened to your sister |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
|
I'd really like to live beside you, baby |
|
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes |
|
But you see that line they're moving through the station |
|
I told you, I told you, I told you I was one of those |
|
Did I thank you for those items that you sent me |
|
The monkey and the plywood violin |
|
I practiced every night now I'm ready |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
|
Now remember me, I used to live for music |
|
Remember me, I brought your groceries in |
|
It's Father's Day and everybody's wounded |
|
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin |
