Lyrics

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 12, 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, remember one thing.

Listen
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.
