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 skin.
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons:
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin.
You loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I 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,
And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin.
I don't like what happened to my sister.
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin!
And I thank you for those items that you sent me^
The monkey and the plywood violin.
I've practiced every night, now I'm ready.
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin!
Ah remember me, I used to live for music!
Remember me, I brought your groceries in!
Well it's Father's Day and everybody's wounded -
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
