What`s Good — текст песни (Lou Reed)

Life`s like a mayonnaise soda
and life`s like space without room
And life`s like bacon and ice cream
that`s what life`s like without you

Life`s like forever becoming
but life`s forever dealing in hurt
Now life`s like death without living
that`s what life`s like without you

Life`s like Sanskrit read to a pony
I see you in my mind`s eye strangling on your tongue
What`s good is knowing such devotion
I`ve been around - I know what makes things run

What good is seeing eye chocolate
what good`s a computerized nose
And what good was cancer in April
why no good - no good at all

What good`s a war without killing
what good is rain that falls up
What good`s a disease that won`t hurt you
why no good, I guess, no good at all

What good are these thoughts that I`m thinking
It must be better not to be thinking at all
A styrofoam lover with emotions of concrete
no not much, not much at all

What`s good is life without living
what good`s this lion that barks
You loved a life others throw away nightly
it`s not fair, not fair at all

What`s good?
oh, baby, what`s good?
What`s good?
what`s good? not much at all

Hey, baby, what`s good? (what`s good?)
What`s good? (what`s good?)
what`s good? (what`s good?) not much at all

What`s good? (what`s good?)
what`s good? (life`s good)
Life`s good (life`s good)
what`s good? (life`s good) but not fair at all
