First We Take Manhattan

It saddens me, the twenty years of boredom
They're trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, 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 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, your spirit and your soul
You see that line moving through the station?
Have I told you, I told you, I told you
I was one of those?

I don't like your fashion business, mister
I don't like those drugs that keep you thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First we take Manhattan
Then we take Berlin

Did I thank you for the items that you sent me?
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every day, now I'm ready
Ready, ready, ready
First we take Manhattan
Then we take Berlin

I'd really like to live beside you, baby
I love your body, your spirit and your soul
You see that line moving through the station?
Have I told you, I told you, I told you
I was one of those?

Did I thank you for the items you sent me?
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every day, now I'm ready
First we take Manhattan
Then we take Berlin

Remember me, I used to live for music
Remember me, I took your groceries in
It's Father's Day, everybody's moving
First we take Manhattan
Then we take Berlin
