Lou Reed's Dead in the Jungle



































Lou Reed’s dead
That’s what I said
Waiting for the man
Stuck in my head

At CBGB, hear the sound
Fear what we’ve found
PUNK pioneer
Finally lying Underground

Father smacked me in the face
Rawggression laced with grace
Critical jeers’n tears
Roll down my face

David Bowie, Iggy Pop
Stooges bleeding fly off flop
Banana standing lands white washed
Warhol’s seeding, planting crop

Lou Reed’s dead
That’s what I said
Waitin for the man
Stuck in my head

Gladiator, torn blue jeans
Surviving heroin, poetry
Exploding Plastic Inevitable
Fluxus-art starts melody

Static magic everything
It comes to life when you sing
Transformer trading trips
To life, fans often cling

Fuck you, I don’t need you to
TELL ME I’M GOOD, would you?
Doo-wop, White Light/White Heat
I found a reason not to sleep too

Lou Reed’s dead
That’s what I said
Waitin for the man
Stuck in my head
