lou reed, john cale - smalltown lyrics
when you’re growing up in a small town
when you’re growing up in a small town
when you’re growing up in a small town
you say, “no one famous ever came from here”
when you’re growing up in a small town
and you’re having a nervous breakdown
and you think that you’ll never escape it
yourself or the place that you live
where did pic-sso come from?
there’s no michelangelo coming from pittsburgh
if art is the tip of the iceberg
i’m the part sinking below
when you’re growing up in a small town
bad skin, bad eyes, g-y and fatty
people look at you funny
when you’re in a small town
my father worked in construction
it’s not something for which i am suited
oh, what is something for which you are suited?
getting out of here
i hate being odd in a small town
if they stare, let them stare in new york city
as this pink-eyed painting albino
how far can my fantasy go?
i’m no dali coming from pittsburgh
no adorable lisping capote, my hero
oh, do you think i could meet him?
i’d camp out at his front door
there’s only one good thing about a small town
there’s only one good use for a small town
there’s only one good thing about a small town
you know that you want to get out
when you’re growing up in a small town
you know that you’ll grow down in a small town
there’s only one good use for a small town
you hate it – and you know you’ll have to leave
