Lou Reed - Wild Child Lyrics
I was talkin to chuck in his genghis khan suitAnd his wizards hatHe spoke of his movie and how he was makinA new sound trackAnd then we spoke of kids on the coastAnd different types of organic soapAnd the way suicides dont leave notesThen we spoke of lorraineAlways back to lorraineI was speakin to phil who was given to pillsAnd small racing carsHe had given them up since his last crack-upHad carried him too farThen we spoke of the movies and verseAnd the way an actress held her purseAnd the way life at times can get worseThen we spoke of lorraineAlways back to lorraineAh, shes a wild childAnd nobody can get at herShes a wild childOh, and nobody can get to herSleepin out on the streetOh, livin all aloneWithout a house or a homeAnd then she asked you, pleaseHey, baby, can I have some spare changeOh, can I break your heart?Shes a wild child, shes a wild childI was talkin to betty about her auditionsHow they made her illBut life is the theater, is certainly fraughtWith many spills and chillsBut shed come down after some wineWhich is what happens most of the timeThen we sat and both spoke in rhymesTill we spoke of lorraineAh, always back to lorraineI was talking to ed whod been reported deadBy mutual friendsHe thought it was funny that I had no moneyTo spend on himSo we both shared a piece of sweet cheeseAnd sang of our lives and our dreamsAnd how things can come apart at the seamsAnd we talk of lorraineAlways back to lorraineShes a wild childOh, and nobody can get at herShes a wild childOh, and nobody can get to herSleepin out on the streetOh, livin all aloneWithout a house or a homeAnd then she asked you, please,Oh, baby, can I have some spare changeNow can I break your heart?Shes a wild child, shes a wild child
