Broadway musical (2014) Hedwig & The Angry Inch the Musical - Tear Me Down Lyrics
The song is written by Stephen Trask.
Ladies and gentlemen, whether you like or not HEDWIG!
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.
