Vigilante lover


Oh you think you got a gypsy smile
But it wont get you out of trouble this time
All you ever had is the memory
And the rose that you keep for company

Anyone could have cracked the code
Anybody could have cracked that code

So touch up your makeup
And save up all your pride
You once made everyone your lover
And I bet you felt just like a bride

While they were talking in some foreign tongue
You were parading around like a beggar in an iron lung
Cause something must be breaking your heart
Yes something is breaking your heart
That I loved like a vigilante lover
That I loved like a vigilante fool

The air was heavy over the village square
Its not everyday they auction off despair
There were voices floating in that country air
And secret policemen watching everywhere

Anyone could have cracked the code
Anyone could have cracked that code

I drive a stolen car
I got a monkey jar
That makes the blood run cold
And I see through windows
And I hear through walls
But nothing you can do can touch me at all

But I wouldnt feel so forlorn
There must be some saving grace
I hear the rosy christians have just hit town
And theyre all heading for your place

Cause something is breaking your heart
Something is breaking your heart
I hope something is

I loved you like a vigilante lover
I loved you like a vigilante fool

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

John Cale is a Welsh musician and composer born in 1942. After studying music in London and New York, he joined The Velvet Underground in 1965, significantly contributing to their experimental and distinctive sound in the first two albums. Cale introduced the droning viola sound, a characteristic element of songs like "Venus In Furs". After the album *White Light/White Heat*, he left the band due to musical differences with Lou Reed. Cale desired to continue exploring experimental sounds, while Reed gravitated towards simpler pop songs. Cale embarked on a successful solo career, releasing albums such as *Vintage Violence* (1970) and *Paris 1919* (1973), influencing genres like experimental rock, ambient, and electronic music. Among his most representative tracks are "Gideon", "The Endless Plain of Glass" and "Hallelujah".
