They say your style of life's a drag
And that you must go other places
But just don't you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces but

Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
Cause I'll be standing on the side
When you check it out...Yeah
When you get it off...your trip
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...Yeah
Don't you worry 'bout a thing...Yeah

They say misery, loves company
We could start a company, and make misery
Frustrated, Incorporated
Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what you'd pay to see
 
Put me out of my misery
I'd do it for you, would you do it for me
We will always be busy
Making misery

I used to live in New York City
Everything there was dark and dirty
Outside my window was a steeple
With a clock that always said twelve thirty

 

Young girls are coming to the canyon
And in the mornings I can see them walkin'
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn
And I can't keep myself from talkin'

[Keeping the Lou Reed thing going...]

 

Then, one fine morning, she turns on a New York station
She doesn't believe what she hears at all
Ooh, she started dancin' to that fine, fine music
You know, her life was saved by rock 'n' roll

Well I'm a gonna raise a fuss, I'm gonna raise a holler
About working all summer just to try and earn a dollar
Everytime I call my baby, to try to get a date
My boss says, no dice, son, you gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna do
'Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues

I took her home to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said " look, what's your game baby?
Are you tryin' to put me in shame?"
I said " slow don't go so fast,
Don't you think that love can last?"
She said " love, Lord above,
Now you're tryin' to trick me in love"
All right now baby, it's all right now
All right now baby, it's all right now

There's a chapel in the pines
Waiting for us, around the bend
Picture in your mind
Love forever, but 'til then

If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time (stop)
I can't stop (stop) I can't stop myself (stop, stop)

Lightning is striking again
Lightning is striking again and again and again and again
Lightning is striking again and again and again and again

Young enough not to care too much
About the way things used to be.
I’m young enough to remember the future —
The past has no claim on me.

 

I’m old enough not to care too much
About what you think of me.
But I’m young enough to remember the future
And the way things ought to be.

Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down

And someday our names will be spread all over town

We can get in while the getting is good

So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could

Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh

We got to make the break

'Cause we got too much at stake

Oh, we ain't got nothin' yet

No, we ain't got nothin' yet

As I walk through this wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity
I ask myself, "Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred and misery?"


And each time I feel like this inside
There's one thing I wanna know
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?

Can this lovin' we have found within us
Ooh, suddenly exist between

Did we somehow try to make it happen
Ooh, was it just a natural thing

 

I'd like to know
Can you tell me, please don't tell me
It really doesn't matter anyhow
It's just that the thought of us so happy
Appears in my mind, as a beautifully mysterious thing
Yes it does now, baby
