Bill Baird your dark sunglasses won t make you lou reed

it started out when you were young
you wandered too high to stay out of the sun
first album of the velvet underground
in your desperate need it did resound
your dark sunglasses won't make you lou reed
your dark sunglasses just make it hard to see
gray tinted technicolor
rebellion on sale
your dark sunglasses won't make you look like…
john cale
sterling morrison
or even… doug yule
morning breath and baited claims
you don't want the knowledge you just want the names
meanwhile life outside goes by
those silly little frames made in taiwan
molded petroleum
rock star wrong
who's never even written a song
your dark sunglasses won't make you lou reed
your dark sunglasses just make it hard to see
gray tinted technicolor
rebellion on sale
your dark sunglasses won't make you look like…
john cale
sterling morrison
or even… doug yule
