Coming down all over me

Never been to london, never been to france
Never was sorry never learned to dance
Never walked down to 42nd street and frairs
Never smoked any filtered air

Guess it's true what all the people say
Gonna have to mend my old time ways, yeah
I guess it's true, guess, i've lived a sheltered life

Never walked about on the streets at night
Never got into an uptown fight
Never smoked a hookah, never saw a rug
Couldn't even squash a beetle bug

Guess it's true i'm gonna have to change my ways
Guess it's true what all the people say, yeah
I know it's true, guess, i've lived a sheltered life

Never went to parties in a chauffeured car
Never wore a top hat 'cause i won't get far
Never learned to handle all the things that i've seen
Maybe i'll grow up to be big and mean

Guess it's true what all the people say
Gonna have to change my old fashioned ways, well
I guess it's true, guess, i've lived a sheltered life

Through all of the highways, the byways i've travelled
Through all of the sidestreets and alleys of sin
Through all that's been heard nothing sinks quite as low
As the prominent statements of prominent men

Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes

The streets that have life with the cat's underbelly
Aligned with their tracks of a thousand good-byes
A poor woman screams with the heat of disaster
As the prominent men sit and strengthen their ties

Oh, the prominent girls of the prominent people
Make prominent dresses and prominent hair
Oh, their prominent wealth and their eyes blazed with shadow
The prominent horrors with the ghost millionaire

The shiny stained window now cracked at sunset
They shiny red dawn of the heart soon must fall
This simply occurred at the seat of the cauldron
Those prominent men hadn't been there at all

Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes

Oh, the prominent child of these prominent people
Seeks prominent schools with the finery of age
With a prominent pink of a tasteless red orchid
The prominent men casts a prominent heir

The child of the agent walks barefoot upon grass
He screams with a power that terror's green eyes
His knife harshly glistening, stabs noways and always
But those prominent men in nowhere in sight

Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of dame fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes

Oh, gin
How could you treat me this way
Oh, treat me this way

Oh, gin
How could you treat me this way
Baby, treat me this way

You know you broke my heart
Ever since you went away

You gotta feel it and like it
And if you move you gotta drill it and hold it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, gin
How could you treatin' me this way

You know you broke my heart
Ever since you went away

Oh, gin
How could you treat me this way
Hey, you treat me this way

Oh, gin
How could you treat me this way
How you treat me this way

You know you broke my heart
Ever since you went away

You gotta feel it and like it
And if you move it like it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, gin
How could you treat me this way

You know i'm gonna stay alone
'til you're coming back and play

You know i've been so sad
Ever since you went away
You know i've been so sad
Ever since you went away

Oh, there's one thing, baby
I just don't understand
Two old women fighting for
Another man
You know it's just too much
Ooohhh, you know it's just too much
Oh, it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand

Oh, here comes mary
Coming over the hill
They say she won't
But her sister will
You know it's just too much
Ooohhh, you know it's just too much
You know it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand
Oh, rock on

Oh, here comes my, na, na, na
With a buckle of gold
Everybody says, hey
Rock your soul
You know it's just too much
Ooohhh, just too much
You know it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand

Hey take me back now
Baby, where i belong
Everything, you know
I'm doing wrong
You know it's just too much
Ooohhh, just too much
Oh, you know it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand
Oh, just

Everytime i'm going out
For my thrill
Here comes mary
And i get no fill
You know it's just too much
Oh, know it's, know it's just too much
Oh, you know it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand

You know it's too, too, too much
You know it's too, too, too much
You know it's too, too, too much
You know it's too, too, too much
You know it's too much, baby
And i just don't understand

Countess from hong kong she moves so lightly
Like the summer rain
Everytime i see and i think about her
It ends up the same
Walkin' the streets out in singapore
It was a funny sight
But let me say the countess from hong kong
She did everything right

Countess from hong kong
Oh, countess from hong kong

Countess from hong kong she moves so lightly
She's like the summer breeze
And all of the princes they came from india
They fell down on their knees
Silks and satins, what a purple suede
She cut among the trees
Countess from hong kong believe me baby
Now you're, ooohhh, like a summer breeze

Oh, countess from hong kong
Countess from hong kong

We're the velvet underground and we have come to play
It's been 28 years since we've been here to the day

There's maureen, she's on the drums, she's havin' lot of fun
Let's hear it for moe tucker, beat those skins for everyone

There is sterling morrison, he's playing the guitar
He's a guitar hero, kicks their asses really far

Now you got here john and me

Now you got here john and me, we want no part of this
That's because we think it is real pretentious shit

In this world as we know it
Sorrows come and go
Now we see the human race
Has put its footprints on the moon's face

Satellite's gone up to the sky
But it's not as nice as looking in your eyes

Woh, take it for a little while
No, i could watch it on tv, yeah

Satellite of love, oh, satellite of love
Satellite of love, satellite of

Satellite's gone up to the sky
And it's going to drive me out of my mind

Woh, take it for a little while
No, i can watch it on tv, yeah

Satellite of love, satellite of love
Satellite of love, satellite of

I've been told, baby, you've been bold
To winkin', blinkin' and nod
Monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday
To winkin', blinkin' and nod

Satellite of love, satellite of love
Satellite of love, satellite of

Satellite of love
Satellite of love, it's just a little bit of
A satellite of love

It was a pleasure then
Could you just be here again
To know what there was to see
When all the sunday people
Where so quiet in the dark
Afraid to be better the next day
La la la ...

It was a pleasure then
When we could sit and stare again
Until the stars feel through the cloudy trees
Onto the grass
Stars to smile with us
Until they too had tears in their eyes
Tell us this and tell of how much we must not agree

It was a pleasure then
To see the dieing days again
In the horror of the night
Never, never, never, never, never, lise
Keep it secret
For to hide somewhere at last
As long as we could see
The sky confessed this crime
Of futile tasting hate romance
Above our shattered minds
It was a pleasure, it was a pleasure
La la la ...

If you think that it's all right
You know what you'll have to do
You're walkin' down 5th avenue
You're seein' things that aren't true
Without you i ain't gonna be waitin'
You're not a hesitating, here it comes

I'm not too sorry
Now that you're gone
I don't think i'll miss you
I found a new one

If you know that it's not right
That i'll see you some other night
But if you want it when you're gone
You'll find yourself another one
So now, ok
Worry, it's around, oh, oh

I'm not too sorry
Now that you're gone
I don't think i'm sorry
'cause i found a new one
It wouldn't break my heart
It wouldn't make it hard to go around

Ah, you've got such understanding ways
I believe everything that you say
Smiling faces not forgotten 'cause
I love you

When i think of all the things we've done
And we haven't even yet begun
Smiling faces not forgotten 'cause
I love you

Just for a little while
Oh, just to see you smile
Just for a little while

You've got such understanding ways
Oh, i believe, i believe every word that you say
Smiling faces not fogotten 'cause
I love you
