:02:04
I rose from off
of the doctor's slab
:02:08
Like Lazarus
from the pit
:02:11
Now everyone wants
to take a stab
:02:14
And decorate me
:02:15
Blood, graffiti,
and spit
:02:17
Enemies
and adversaries
:02:21
They try
and tear me down
:02:25
You want me, baby,
I dare you
:02:28
Try and tear me down.
:02:53
On August 13,
1961,
:02:55
a wall
was erected
:02:57
down the middle
of the city of Berlin.
:03:00
The world was divided
by a cold war,
:03:02
and the Berlin Wall was the most
hated symbol of that divide.
:03:06
Reviled, graffiti'd,
spit upon.
:03:09
We thought the wall
would stand forever.
:03:12
And now
that it's gone,
:03:13
we don't know
who we are anymore.
:03:17
Ladies and gentlemen,
Hedwig is like that wall,
:03:19
standing before you
in a divide
:03:21
between East
and West.
:03:23
Slavery
and freedom.
:03:25
Man and woman.
Top and bottom.
:03:29
And you can try
and tear her down,
:03:31
but before you do,
:03:33
you must remember
one thing!
:03:37
Ain't much
of a difference
:03:41
Between a bridge
and a wall
:03:44
Without me right
in the middle, babe
:03:46
Wow!
:03:48
You would be
nothing at all
:03:50
Enemies
and adversaries
:03:54
They try
and tear me down
:03:57
You want me, baby,
I dare you
