lou reed - smalltown [animal serenade] lyrics

Loading...

when you’re growing up in a small town
when you’re growing up in a small town
when you’re growing up in a small town
you say, “no one famous ever came from here”
when you’re growing up in a small town
and you’re having a nervous breakdown
and you think that you’ll never escape it
yourself or the place that you live

where did picasso come from?
there’s no michelangelo coming from pittsburgh
if art is the tip of the iceberg
i’m the part sinking below

when you’re growing up in a small town
bad skin, bad eyes, g+y and fatty
people look at you funny
when you’re in a small town
my father worked in construction
it’s not something for which i am suited
oh, what is something for which you are suited?
getting out of here

i hate being odd in a small town
if they stare, let them stare in new york city
as this pink+eyed painting albino
how far can my fantasy go?
i’m no dali coming from pittsburgh
no adorable lisping capote, my hero
oh, do you think i could meet him?
i’d camp out at his front door

there’s only one good thing about a small town
there’s only one good use for a small town
there’s only one good thing about a small town
you know that you want to get out
when you’re growing up in a small town
you know that you’ll grow down in a small town
there’s only one good use for a small town
you hate it + and you know you’ll have to leave
