Thanks to Sarah J for help with the lyrics.
* There was a discotheque called "Superfly" at the Kurfuerstendamm in the 70s.
It was
closed because of too much drug use after a police raid. I think it
was connected with the "High Fly" or maybe the same
location renamed?
Later the gay discotheque "Construction" would appear in the same location. Thanks to Manuela/US for their research!
Berlin
Love the sight and love the sound
I wish that I could stick around
Berlin
You never laid a mark on me
Well you're no gent if you know what I mean
Berlin
Come and get your body fried
And see the wall electrified
Berlin
No rewards and no regrets
They're bricked up till the kids forget
Berlin
Climb at night and see the lights
Take your aim and set your sights
Berlin
Give me the reason
There is no answer
You ask her why
She is a strange dancer
Come and get your body fried
And see the wall electrified
Berlin
Give me the reason
There is no answer
You want a reason
Blood is a reason
No rewards and no regrets
They're bricked up till the kids forget
Berlin
Five nights, I nearly died
Park yourselves in Superfly*
And watch the boys as they go by
Berlin
Give me the reason
There is no answer
You ask her why
She is a strange dancer
Love the sight and love the sound
I wish that I could stick around
Berlin
Give me the reason
There is no answer
You want a reason
Blood is a reason
You never laid a mark on me
Well you're no gent if you know what I mean
Berlin
