They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

I'm guided by the signal in the heavens
I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

I'd really like to live beside you, baby
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
But you see that line there moving through the station?
I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those

Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

I don't like your fashion business mister
And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
I don't like what happened to my sister
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

And I thank you for those items that you sent me
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every night, now I'm ready
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

Remember me, I used to live for music
Remember me, I brought your groceries in
Well it's Father's Day and everybody's wounded
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

Song & Lyrics - Kid Harpoon covering Leonard Cohen's, First We Take Manhattan

Presents:
Jessica necklace - Mark (who watches SATC)
Assorted linen bands - Darcy, Martyn, Owen, Rob, Andy, Heidi & Benny
Nixon watch - My epic brother (yes he is a legend!)
Moonstone ring - the Mockfords
Tattoo - from Jay to me & from me to myself
Moonstone Necklace - my dear mother (better pictures soon)

I also got a stamp of an anotomical heart (long story) from Chris, a wolf slave bracelet/ring from Jesus, a genuine Wedgewood cup & saucer from my sister (plus some vodka) & a Che Guevara DVD again from Jay

The weekend was more than beautiful. Horisington is a gorgeous (if random) place. Thank you to Heidi & her mum's connections for that. Also thank you for Jay (again) for arriving early-ish on Saturday and not drinking loads on Saturday night so he could do my tattoo on Sunday.

I also decided to share with you I think my favorite song (Laurie, I thought about it). Me & my mum had an argument (ish) because she thinks the Leonard Cohen version is better but I love the randomness of the song & the rawness of Kid Harpoon's voice is adorable to me.

& the photos on the wall behind my head are of Alexander McQueen's collection. Because it made me cry & think more & more. Scribbles, Ink and Thrown Out Pages says it better.

Love Jezebel x x
Oh PS sorry about the hair, trying to curl it before I go into college...
