Dirt


Its been a long time, since Ive spoken to you
Was it the right time
Your current troubles, and you know, theyll get much worse
I hope you know how much you enjoy them
Youre a pig of a person, if theres a justice in this world
Hey, how about that
Your lack of conscience and your lack of morality
Well, more and more people know all about it

Do you remember that song by a dude named bobby fuller
It went like this:
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

We sat around the other night, me and the guys
Trying to find the right word
That would best fit and describe
You people like that
That no principle has touched, no principles baptized
How about that
Theyd eat shit and say it tasted good
If there was some money in it for them

Hey, you remember that song about this guy from texas
Whose name was --- bobby fuller
Ill sing it for you, it went like this:
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

Youre just dirt
Youre just dirt, the only word for you is dirt
Thats the only word that -

- hurt, youre just dirt
Thats all youre worth - cheap, cheap dirt
You know they call it -
Cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt
Youre just - cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt
Youre just dirt - nothing but - cheap uptown dirt
Thats all youre worth - its just - cheap, cheap, uptown dirt
Thats all youre worth now (cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt)
Youre just dirt (cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap uptown dirt)
(cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt)
(cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt)
(cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, uptown dirt)

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

After the band's dissolution, he embarked on a highly successful solo career, exploring controversial themes such as heroin, sexuality, and social marginalization. Among his most important albums are "Transformer" (1972), "Berlin" (1973) and "Street Hassle" (1978). Reed was a provocative and controversial artist, but also a refined poet and a musician of great talent. Some of his most representative songs are: 'Walk on the Wild Side', 'Heroin', 'Perfect Day'.
