Mystic Child — текст песни (Lou Reed)

It was only the time of the newly born dead

With wispy cobwebs in your head

The polar moon looked out instead

Goin wild



Liquor shifting through the brain

The manic depressive goes insane

Goin wild

Goin wild



Desperate anger hits the streets

By the foul smelling river by the meat market

Goin wild

Mystic child



Goin wild

Mystic child



In the winter with frozen toes

Looking out the big windows

To fly

Goin wild



Situation x out of control

My eyes half opened like a mole

Who smiles

Goin wild



Who smiles

Goin wild



In the mystic morning where the river meets

The hurdy-gurdy of the hip-hop beat

5 a.m. the viscous street



Oh, wild

Goin wild



Out the window like a flash

Fallin through a rooftop crash

Blind

Goin wild



Sick and misty like a pup by the curb

Hes throwin up

Wild

Like a child



Goin wild

Like a child



If he cant have all that relates

To testify that he is great

Hell cut someone with a broken plate

Stand upon the subway grate



And smile

Goin wild

Goin wild

With a smile



Holy morning

Sun is up and someone

Here has lost his cups



The dawn is tattered all cut up

Goin wild

Like a mystic child



Like a mystic child



Sunday morning looking down from the rooftop

Goin wild with a smile

Mystic child



Top of the world hes got it made

Rings are gold, braids are jade

Jumped to the street, hes got it made

Goodbye, child



Goodbye, child

Mystic child

Goin wild

Like a mystic child



Goodbye

Goodbye

Goin wild, ah

Goin wild

Like a mystic child

Holy morning

Sun is up and someone

Going wild

Like a mystic, like a mystic, like a mystic -

- child

Goin-goin, goin-goin wild

Like a mystic child

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh

Jumped to the street
