Tear Me Down - Riverdale Cast, Vanessa Morgan, Casey Cott

Don’t you know me Kansas City

I’m the new Berlin wall

Try and tear me down

I was born on the other side

Of a town ripped in two

I made it over the great divide

Well, now I’m coming for you

Enemies and adversaries

They try and tear me down

You want me, baby, I dare you

Well, 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 13th, 1961a 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, you must remember one thing

Hey, 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

Enemies and adversaries

They try and tear me down

You want me, baby, I dare you

Try and tear me down

From East Berlin to Junction City

Hello New York, hello Missouri

What, you try and tear me down

Come on and tear, come on and tear me down
