Lou Reed — Little Sister

You know it's hard for me I cannot use the phone And in the shape of publicity No relationship is born And I feel like a Hercules who's recently been shorn But I have always loved my baby sister Pick me up at eight You'll see me on TV I know I don't look well Time's not been good to me But please believe me The blame is all on me I have always loved my baby sister Remember when we were younger When you would wait for me at school? Teacher's friends and brazen sins And I was often cruel But you always believed in me You thought I was the best And now that I've got you alone Let me get this off my chest Pick a melody Then count from one to ten (Eight, nine, ten) I'll make a rhyme up And then we'll try again To laugh or cry or give a sigh To a past that might have been And how much I really love my baby sister And how much I really love my baby sister And how much I really love my baby sister Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba
