Velvet Underground - Prominent Men Lyrics
Through all of the highways, the byways Ive travelledThrough all of the sidestreets and alleys of sinThrough all thats been heard nothing sinks quite as lowAs the prominent statements of prominent menProminent men tell prominent storiesProminent men tell prominent liesProminent men kiss the ass of dame fortuneProminent men will tear out your eyesThe streets that have life with the cats underbellyAligned with their tracks of a thousand good-byesA poor woman screams with the heat of disasterAs the prominent men sit and strengthen their tiesOh, the prominent girls of the prominent peopleMake prominent dresses and prominent hairOh, their prominent wealth and their eyes blazed with shadowThe prominent horrors with the ghost millionaireThe shiny stained window now cracked at sunsetThey shiny red dawn of the heart soon must fallThis simply occurred at the seat of the cauldronThose prominent men hadnt been there at allProminent men tell prominent storiesProminent men tell prominent liesProminent men kiss the ass of dame fortuneProminent men will tear out your eyesOh, the prominent child of these prominent peopleSeeks prominent schools with the finery of ageWith a prominent pink of a tasteless red orchidThe prominent men casts a prominent heirThe child of the agent walks barefoot upon grassHe screams with a power that terrors green eyesHis knife harshly glistening, stabs noways and alwaysBut those prominent men in nowhere in sightProminent men tell prominent storiesProminent men tell prominent liesProminent men kiss the ass of dame fortuneProminent men will tear out your eyes
