East Berlin

_____

'Unter den Linden'

_____

People walk

_____

Past flags and banners

_____

Where Lenin and Marx

_____

Still stand on a pedestal

_____

And everyone works

_____

Hammers and sickles

_____

While in parade step

_____

The guard gets changed

_____

Forty years of socialism

_____

A lot's been achieved in that time

_____

But what's that promised land

_____

If there are walls around it?

_____

If you have to be scared and careful

_____

With your opinion?

_____

Ah, what's that promised land

_____

Tell me, what's it worth?

_____

When someone who deviates

_____

Is declared insane?

_____

And only the birds

_____

Fly from East to West Berlin

_____

Aren't called back

_____

Nor shot down

_____

Over the wall

_____

Over the Iron Curtain

_____

Because sometimes they want to be in the west

_____

And sometimes in the east

_____

Because sometimes they want to be in the west

_____

And sometimes in the east

_____

West Berlin: the 'Kurfürstendamm'

_____

People walk past porn and peepshows

_____

Where Mercedes and Cola

_____

Still stand on a pedestal

_____

And the neon signs

_____

That glitter and lure

_____

Come dance! Come eat!

_____

Come booze! Come gamble!

_____

That's forty years of freedom

_____

A lot's been achieved in that time

_____

But what's that freedom

_____

Without a house, without a job?

_____

So many Turks in 'Kreuzberg'

_____

Who can barely get by

_____

Sure, you can demonstrate

_____

But with your back against the wall

_____

And only if you've got money

_____

Then freedom isn't pricey

_____

And the birds fly from West to East Berlin

_____

Aren't called back

_____

Nor shot down

_____

Over the wall

_____

Over the Iron Curtain

_____

Because sometimes they want to be in the east

_____

And sometimes in the west

_____

Because there's bread sometimes

_____

By the 'Gedächtniskirche'

_____

Sometimes on Alexanderplatz
