The Original Wrapper - Lou Reed[00:00:00]
I was sittin' home on the West End[00:00:15]
Watchin' cable TV with a female friend[00:00:17]
We were watchin' the news the world's in a mess[00:00:19]
The poor and the hungry a world in distress[00:00:21]
Herpes AIDS the Middle East at full throttle[00:00:23]
Better check that sausage before you put it in the waffle[00:00:25]
And while you're at it check what's in the batter[00:00:27]
Make sure that candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:00:29]
Hey pitcher better check that batter[00:00:30]
Make sure that candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:00:32]
Reagan says abortion's murder[00:00:42]
While he's looking at Cardinal O'Connor[00:00:44]
Look at Jerry Falwell Louis Farrakhan[00:00:45]
Both talk religion and the brotherhood of man[00:00:47]
They both sound like they belong in Teheran[00:00:49]
Watch out they're goin' full throttle[00:00:52]
Better check that sausage before you stick it in the waffle[00:00:53]
And while you're at it better check what's in the batter[00:00:55]
Make sure that candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:00:57]
Hey pitcher better check that batter[00:00:59]
Make sure that candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:01:01]
White against white Black against Jew[00:01:11]
It seems like it's 1942[00:01:12]
The baby sits in front of MTV[00:01:14]
Watching violent fantasies[00:01:16]
While Dad guzzles beer with his favorite sport[00:01:18]
Only to find his heroes are all coked up[00:01:20]
Classic original the same old story[00:01:22]
The politics of hate in a new surrounding[00:01:23]
Hate if it's good and hate if it's bad[00:01:26]
And if this all don't make you mad[00:01:28]
I'll keep yours and I'll keep mine[00:01:29]
Nothing sacred and nothing divine[00:01:31]
Father bless me we're at full throttle[00:01:33]
Better check that sausage before you put it in the waffle[00:01:35]
And while you're at it better check that batter[00:01:37]
Make sure the candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:01:39]
Hey pitcher better check that batter[00:01:41]
Make sure that candy's in the Original Wrapper hey hey[00:01:42]
I was born in the United States[00:02:00]
And I grew up hard but I grew up straight[00:02:01]
I saw a lack of morals and a lack of concern[00:02:03]
A feeling that there's nowhere to turn[00:02:05]
Yippies Hippies and upwardly mobile Yuppies[00:02:07]
Don't treat me like I'm some dumb lackey[00:02:09]
'Cause the murderer lives while the victims die[00:02:11]
I'd much rather see it an eye for an eye[00:02:13]
A heart for a heart a brain for a brain[00:02:15]
And if this all makes you feel a little insane[00:02:17]
Kick up your heels turn the music up loud[00:02:18]
Pick up your guitar and look out at the crowd and say -[00:02:20]
"Don't mean to come on sanctimonious[00:02:23]
But life's got me nervous and little pugnacious[00:02:24]
Lugubrious so I give a salutation[00:02:26]
And rock on out to beat really stupid[00:02:28]
Ohh poop ah doo and how do you do[00:02:29]
Hip hop gonna bop till I drop"[00:02:32]
Watch out world comin' at you full throttle[00:02:34]
Better check that sausage before you put it in the waffle[00:02:36]
And while you're at it better check that batter[00:02:38]
Make sure the candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:02:39]
Hey hey pitcher better check that batter[00:02:41]
Make sure the candy's in the Original Wrapper[00:02:43]
Hey pitcher better check that batter[00:02:45]
