Lyrics
0:24They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
0:32For trying to change the system from within
0:39I'm coming now I'm coming to reward them
0:47First we take manhattan then we take berlin
1:01I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
1:08I'm guided by this birthmark on my sking
1:16I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
1:23First we take manhattan then we take berlin
1:34I'd really like to live beside you baby
1:40I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
1:49But you see that line there moving through the station
1:56I told you I told you I told you I was one of those
2:30I don't like your fashion business mister
2:37I don't like these ***** that keep you thing
2:44I don't like what happened to my sister
2:52First we take manhattan then we take berlin
3:05Then we take berlin
3:12Then we take berlin
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 this birthmark on my sking 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 there moving through the station 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 these ***** that keep you thing 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
