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 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 to 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 nothing 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
