Title: First We Take Manhattan

Edit by: Simon Zhang

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


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

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 drugs that keep you thin

I don't like what happened to your sister

First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin (chorus)

~Wish you happy! --enjoy100~
