"Destroyer" lyrics
"Destroyer"
Met a girl called Lola and I took her back to my place
Feeling guilty, feeling scared, hidden cameras everywhere
Stop! Hold on. Stay in control
Girl, I want you here with me
But I'm really not as cool as I'd like to be
'Cause there's a red, under my bed
And there's a little yellow man in my head
And there's a true blue inside of me
That keeps stopping me, touching you, watching you, loving you
Paranoia, the destroyer
Paranoia, the destroyer
Well I fell asleep, then I woke feeling kinda' queer
Lola looked at me and said, "Ooh. You look so weird."
She said, "Man, there's really something wrong with you
One day you're gonna' self-destruct
You're up, you're down, I can't work you out
You get a good thing going then you blow yourself out."
Silly boy, you're self-destroyer
Silly boy, you're self-destroyer
Silly boy, you got so much to live for
So much to aim for, so much to try for
You're blowing it all with paranoia
You're so insecure. You're self-destroyer
(And it goes like this, here it goes)
Paranoia, the destroyer
(Here it goes again)
Paranoia, the destroyer
Doctor, doctor help me please, I know you'll understand
There's a time device inside of me, I'm a self-destructing man
There's a red, under my bed
And there's a little green man in my head
And he said, "You're not going crazy. You're just a bit sad
'Cause there's a man in you, gnawing you, tearing you into two."
Silly boy, you're self-destroyer
Paranoia, the destroyer
Self-destroyer, wreck your health
Destroy your friends, destroy yourself
The time device of self-destruction
Light the fuse and start eruption
(Yeah. It goes like this. Here it goes)
Paranoia, the destroyer
(Here's to paranoia)
Paranoia, the destroyer
(Hey hey, here it goes)
Paranoia, the destroyer
(And it goes like this)
Paranoia, the destroyer
(And it goes like this.)

Lou Reed - "Hangin' 'Round" Harry was a rich young man
Who would become a priest
He dug up his dear father
Who was recently deceased
He did it with tarot cards
And a mystically attuned mind
And shortly therein
After he did...

Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin
I don't know what it is that I like about you, but I like it a lot
Won't you let me hold you, let me feel your loving touch...

Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are...

Hoping boogies still allowed

Well are thunderheads just another cloud, we do
Not Fragile, straight at you
Then we vanish to the night...

Just remember I don't live too far
And there's a red bridge that arcs the bay, yes
You'll be at my place in less than a day
Huh, so get on your bad motor...
