If you spend a night in this city
It wouldn't do it just
The worst of your fears become
A sudden push of your lust
A street performer is trying to stay young
Singing songs to fools with a literate tongue
Ich bin ein Berliner
There was a wall that once stood here
Many moons ago
Barbed wire, concrete and lead
Standing three metres tall
The statues to the good times and
Crumbling memories of the low
Now there's hipsters fixing push bikes
Eating avocados on the go
Ich bin ein Berliner
Gorbachev tear down this wall
