Tear me down

[ladies and gentlemen,
Whether you like or not: hedwig!]
- 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 divide
Now i'm coming 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 lab
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 to tear her down.
But before you do, you must remember one thing!!
There ain't much of a difference
Between a bridge and a wall
Without me right in the middle, babe
You would be nothing at all
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 new salem
What? try and tear me down
Come on and tear me down
