Berlin Songtext / Lyric

Berlin

Janis Ian/Linda Perry






I was walking down a wrong way street

I was feeling like a refugee

Berlin

Got shot by an old man's eyes

Got pinned like a butterfly

Berlin

This should have been a happy love song

This should have been a sappy song for you

This should have been a happy love song

Saw a woman on a bridge last night

She was standing on the edge of life

Berlin

I was deafened by the anxious crowd

They were yelling JUMP RIGHT

NOW

This should have been a happy love song

This should have been a sappy song for you

There's a lady laying in my bed

Angel flying overhead

Berlin

There's a needle laying on the floor

And a letter saying

Please no more

This should have been a happy love song

This should have been a sappy song for you

This should have been a happy love song
