First We Take Manhattan lyrics

(l. cohen)

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, i told you, i was one of those




Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you`re 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
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
Then we take berlin,then we take berlin
