    This is one of those songs everybody wants to cover. Good to see Mr. Cohen in the video.

    ❤They sentenced me to 20 years of boredom
    For trying to change the system from within
    I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
    I'm guided by a signal in the heavens (Guided, guided)
    I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin (I am guided by)
    I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons (Ooh, ooh)
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
    I'd really like to live beside you, baby
    I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
    But you see that line there moving through the station?
    I told you, I told you, told you I was one of those
    Ah, you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
    You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
    How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
    I don't like your fashion business, mister
    And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
    I don't like what happened to my sister
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
    I'd really like to live beside you, baby
    I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
    But you see that line there moving through the station?
    I told you, I told you, told you I was one of those
    And I thank you for those items that you sent me, ha ha ha ha
    The monkey and the plywood violin
    I practiced every night, now I'm ready
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
    I am guided
    Ah, remember me, I used to live for music (Baby)
    Remember me, I brought your groceries in (Ooh, baby, yeah)
    Well, it's Father's Day, and everybody's wounded
    First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

    Did you turn off wonder girl spin transformation yourself or is it automatically done by RUclips ??

      I was getting a lot of spam comments on the Wonder Woman videos, so that's why I turned them off.

    Did Leonard Cohen's song, "First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin", presage the 9-11 attacks and the migrant invasion of Germany?

      No. And there is no "migrant invasion" of Germany, little fascist.

      "No matter how kind and warm you are, it will not divert me from my appointed task, which is first to take Manhattan and then Berlin, and several other cities, and do with them as I will".~ Cohen.
