lou reed - foot of pride lyrics
(bob dylan)
like the lion tears the flesh off of a man
so can a woman who p-sses herself off as a male
they sang “danny boy” at his funeral and the lord’s prayer
preacher talking ’bout christ betrayed
like the earth just opened and swallowed him up
reached too high, was thrown back to the ground
you know what they say about bein’ nice to the right people on the way up
sooner or later you gonna meet them comin’ down
oh, there ain’t no comin’ back when your foot of pride come down
ain’t no comin’ back
oh, no, comin’ back when your foot of pride come down
ain’t no comin’ back
they got a brother named james, don’t forget faces or names
sunken cheeks and his blood is mixed
he looked straight into the sun and said revenge is mine
but he drinks, and drinks can be fixed
sing me one more song, ha, about ya love me to the moon and the stranger
and your fall by the sword love affair with erroll flynn
in these times of comp-ssion when conformity’s in fashion
say, one more stupid thing to me before the final nail is driven in
oh, there ain’t no comin’ back when your foot of pride come down
hey, hey, hey, hey
oh, baby, ain’t no comin’ back when your foot of pride come down
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, ain’t no comin’ back
there’s a retired businessman named red …
cast down from heaven and he’s out of his head
he feeds off of everyone that he can touch
he said he only deals in cash or sells tickets to a plane crash
not somebody that you play around with much miss delilah is his
a philistine is what she is, she’ll do wondrous works with your fate
ah, feed you coconut bread, spice buns in your bed
if you don’t mind sleepin’ with your head face
