Why Do Men Sing

Driving through the dark Arriving in the rain To sing my songs All over again And then eat my dinner cold On a couch vile and old In a very green room An old friend didn't show And now there's nowhere for this feeling to go And no one for my little heart to hold You can't bottle the power That surges through you up here, you know Watch your ear, Van Gogh Tarot the workflow, take in the tableau Oh, why do men sing? Why do men sing? It's a funny thing Why, why, why do men sing? Yeah, why do men sing? Why do men sing? In leather and rings Tell me why, why, why do men sing? Now listen to this I had a bad dream That I was a-gonna die My spirit guide came and showed me where to hide I was terrified And then I peeked back outside Lou Reed was waiting for me All dressed in white I said, "Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou What is this place that you took me to? Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou, Lou What is this place that you took me to?" He looked me deep in the eye And gave me that warm handshake And said, "It's cool, baby, just got to let it ride It's cool, little mama Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride, let it ride Let it ride, let it ride Into a dwarf star or a black hole Or someone else's soul" Oh, why do men sing? Why do men sing? Jester or king Tell me why, why, why do men sing? Why do men sing? Why do men sing? Did they say the wrong thing? Tell me why, tell me why do men sing? Yeah, why do men sing? Why do men sing? Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, why, why do men sing?
