Lou Reed's lyrics have been the work of a cunt for a few years now
 

He even sings them like a bleepin' twat.

It can only lead to trouble if you break my heart
if you accidentally crush it on the ides of March
I'd prefer you were straight forward
you don't have to go through all of that
I'm a New York city man, baby, and say "go" and that is that

New York city man, you just say "go" and that is that
I'm a New York city man, you just say "go" and that is that

It's far too complicated to make up a lie
that you'd have to remember and really why
I wouldn't want to be around you
if you didn't want to have me around
I'm a M-A-N-N man, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone

M-A-N-N man, you blink your eyes, honey, I love you, I'll be gone
New York city man, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone

Brutus made a pretty speech but Caesar was betrayed
Lady Macbeth went crazy but Macbeth ended slain
Ophelia and Desdemona dead leaving Hamlet in a play
but I'm no Lear with blinded eyes, say "go" and I am gone

The stars have shut their eyes up tight
the earth has changed it's course
a Kingdom sits on a black knight's back
as he tries to mount a white jeweled horse
While a clock full of butterflies on the hour
releases a thousand moths
You say "leave" and I'll be gone
without any remorse
No letters faxes phones or tears
there's a difference between bad and worse

I'm a New York city man, blink your eyes and I'll be gone
New York city - man, M-A-N, you blink your eyes and I'll be gone

New York city, I love you, New York city man
New York city, how I love you, blink your eyes and I'll be gone
just a little grain of sand
New York city, ooohhh, how I love you
New York city, baby, blink your eyes and I'll be gone
Oh, how I love you

that does kind of suck.

Yes,because your mum wrote the lyrics to it while she was sucking him out.

snnap!

i got the raven in the mail a few days ago... I haven'[t finished it, but it's funny hearing him say "egar all ehn poe not exactly the boy next dooor" (to be sung with graval in yr gullet)

Which cunt would that be, that his lyrics are the work of?

really? i didn't notice.

actually, saying i didn't notice how shitty his lyrics have been is like saying i didn't notice that crusty jizz at the corners of your mouth, porky.

Even that Warhol tribute is the work of two twats(and i hold Reed responsable more than Cale to be honest.)

Whenever I'm looking for insightful rock criticism, I turn to porkmarras. He knows what he's talking about.

Damn, that's pretty good!

Yeah yeah.Kiss me butt.

Hey! I wrote that song!

no thanks. i'm ill enough as it is.

I thought that record was pretty much unlistenable. I cannot believe how many people with otherwise good taste found this to be even remotely worthwhile.

Berlin. Why are you even discussing his merit? He wrote Berlin. Did any of you write Berlin AKA forgiveness for all future shit records? No? What about Metal 'fuck you highbrow drone bastards, let's rock!' machine music? No? No. You didn't.

I strongly agree.

It's somewhere in the top twenty recordings of the nineties.
For instance, I like Nirvana still, they were okay, but it beats any Nirvana title.

more than a few years.
