And if I was a child and the child was in love
I love for me to love and love’s too strong.
And if I was a child and the child was enough
Enough for me to love, enough to love.
And if I was a child
And the child was a nun.
And if I was a child
And the child was enough.
And if I was a child
And the child was in love.
And if I was a child
And the child was enough.
And if I was a child
And the child was a nut
A nut for me to love.
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
Enough for me to love.
And if I was a truck
And the truck was enough
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
And if I was to trust
And if trusting was enough
or
And if I was to try
And if trying was enough
And if I was a child
And the child was enough
Black lace child
Lightning strikes.
Enough for me to love
In love to know.
Enough for me to love
Enough to love.
In the middle of the year, I have no fear.
With a little fear, I have no fear.
Juicy your gypsy
You see your gypsy
Lettin' hands dry.
Lightning strikes.
Oh, no, no! I'm a mule!
Oh, no, no, no! I am you!
Sew my back to the velvet on the ground
Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
So I'm back, to the velvet underground
Back to the floor, that I love
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
She was just a bitch,
She was just, a witch.
She was just a wish,
She was just, a wish.
She was just a fish.
She was just a wish.
She was just a mess.
She was just a wish.
She was just a witch.
She was just a wish.
She was such a bitch
or
She was just a bitch
She was just a wish.
So I'm back to the building
So I'm back to the Velvet
So I'm back to the velvet, and I look around.
So I'm back, to the velvet underground.
So I'm back to the village
So I'm back to the Velvet
To a room where sun lays in vapour flowers.
To a room with some lace and paper flowers.
To a room with sewn lace and paper flowers.
To a room with some lace and paper flowers.
To a room with sun leis and paper flowers
To a room with some lace and paper flowers
To the gypsy that remains
Faces freedom with a little deer.
or
To the gypsy that remains
Faces freedom with a little beer.
To the gypsy that remains
Faces freedom with a little fear.
Well you know that it doesn’t, lighten inside
Maybe once maybe twice oh, any lives of the night.
Well you know that it does well, lightning strikes
Maybe once maybe twice oh, and it lights up the night.
White linen stripes
Maybe once, maybe twice.
Lightning strikes
Maybe once, maybe twice.
With sunlight and vapor flowers
With some lace and paper flowers
You know from being in love
It's enough to know---oh.
Enough for me to love
Enough to love.
You say you're juicing.
or
You see, you're tipsy.
or
You see, you're juicy.
or
You see your gypsum.
or
You see your juicer.
or
You see your Snoopy.
You see your gypsy.
You see her tits swing
You see your gypsy
You see you're ditzy
You see your gypsy
You see you're in D.C.
You see your gypsy
You see you're tipsy
You see your Gypsy
You see your Trixie
You see your gypsy
You see your chimpanzee
You see your gypsy
You see your dipstick.
You see your gypsy.
You see your g-string.
You see your gypsy
You see your ginseng
You see your gypsy
You see your ship sinks
You see your gypsy
