First We Take Manhattan
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
I'm guided by the 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 that's moving
Through the station?
I told you, I told you, told you
I was one of those
I don't like your fashion business, mister
I don't like those drugs that keep ya thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First, we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
Then we take Berlin
Then we take Berlin
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
I'm guided by the 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 that's moving
Through the station?
I told you, I told you, told you
I was one of those
I don't like your fashion business, mister
I don't like those drugs that keep ya thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First, we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
Then we take Berlin
Then we take Berlin
