FIRST WE TAKE MANHATTAN (Leonard Cohen)
They senDmtenced me to twenty years of boAmredom
For tryDming to change the system from wiAmthin
I'm comDming now I'm coming to rewAmard them
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin
I'm guiDmded by a signal in the heaAmvens
I'm guiDmded by this birthmark on myAm skin
I'm guiDmded by the beauty of our weAmapons
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin
I'd Creally like to live beside you, bGaby F
I love your boCdy and your spirit and your clAmothes
But you sCee that line there moving through the stAmation
I toGld you I toFld you I toEld you I was one of thoAmse
You lovDmed me as a loser but now your woAmrried that I just might win
You kDmnow the way to stop me but you Amdon't have the discipline
How mDmany nights I prayed for this: to lAmet my work begin
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin
DmI don't like your fashion business, mAmister
DmI don't like these drugs that keep you tAmhin
DmI don't like what happened to your sAmister
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin (chorus)
And I tDmhank you for those items that you Amsent me
The Dmmonkey end the plywood violAmin
I prDmacticed every night and now I'm rAmeady
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin
RemDmember me, I used to live for mAmusic
RemDmember me, I brought your groceries iAmn
It's FaDmther's Day and everybody's wAmounded
FiGrst we take ManhattFan,E then we take BerlAmin
