Don't you know me Kansas city I'm the New Berlin wall Try and tear me down
I was born on the other side Of a town ripped in two I made it over the great devide Now I'm comin' for you
Enemies and adversaries They try and tear me down You want me baby, I dare you Try and tear me down
I rose from off of the doctor's slab Like Lazarus from the pit Now everyone wants to take a stab And decorate me with blood graffiti and spit
Enemies and adversaries They try and tear me down You want me baby, I dare you Try and tear me down
On August 13th, 1961 A wall was erected Down the middle of the city of Berlin The world was divided by a cold war And the Berlin wall Was the most hated symbol of that divide Reviled, graffitied, spit upon We thought the wall would stand forever
And now that it's gone We don't know who we are anymore Ladies and gentlemen Hedwig is like that wall Standing before you in the divide Between east and west Slavery and freedom Man and woman, top and bottom
And you can try and tear her down But before you do You must remember one thing
Hey, there ain't much of a difference Between a bridge and a wall Without me right in the middle, babe You would be nothin' at all
Enemies and adversaries They try and tear me down You want me baby, I dare you Try and tear me down
Enemies and adversaries They try and tear me down You want me baby, I dare you Try and tear me down
From east Berlin to junction city Hello New York hello Missouri What you try and tear me down? Come on and tear, come on and tear me down
