Hal Willner - Brandenburg Gate lyrics

[Verse 1] I would cut my legs and tits off When I think of Boris Karloff and Kinski In the dark of the moon It made me dream of Nosferatu Trapped on the isle of Doctor Moreau Would not it be lovely [Verse 2] I was thinking Peter Lorre When things got pretty gory as I Crossed to the Brandenburg Gate I was feeling snappy perhaps I'd been napping And I had just ate A following heart can tear you apart On a midnight to 8 shift [Verse 3] A graveyard romance can only give one chance As the tombstones weave and breathe Feeling happy when my heart got beating On a Sunday afternoon [Verse 4] I dreamt of breezes going through the treeses And stars were still illumed I have three hearts that I keep apart Trying to relate To normal feelings and the nightime reelings And some absynth drunk so late [Verse 5] The cook got drunk and all the who*es they shrunk Onto the size of dessert plates But me, I am happy cause I got my little nappy And some opium to set me straight I am just a small town girl who wants to give it a whirl While my looks still hold me straight [Verse 6] Straight up to illusion and fantasy's fusion Of reality mixed with drink I am just a small town girl who is going to give life a whirl Looking at the Brandenburg Gate
