Work — текст песни (Lou Reed)





Andy was a catholic

The ethic ran through his bones

He lived alone with his mother

Collecting gossip and toys



Every sunday when he went to church

Hed kneel in his pew and say

Its work

All that matters is work



He was a lot of things

What I remember most hed say

Ive got to bring home the bacon

Someones got to bring home the roast



Hed get to the factory early

If youd ask him hed tell you straight out

Its work



No matter what I did it never seemed enough

He said I was lazy, I said I was young

He said, how many songs did you write

Id written zero, Id lied and said, ten



You wont be young forever

You should have written fifteen

Its work



You ought to make things big

People like it that way

And the songs with the dirty words

Make sure your record them that way



Andy liked to stir up trouble

He was funny that way

He said, its just work



Andy sat down to talk one day

He said decide what you want

Do you want to expand your parameters

Or play museums like some dilettante



I fired him on the spot

He got red and called me a rat

It was the worst word that he could think of

And Ive never seen him like that

Its work

I thought he said its just work



Andy said a lot of things

I stored them all away in my head

Sometimes when I cant decide what I should do

I think what would andy have said



Hed probably say you think too much

Thats cause theres work that you dont want to do

Its work

The most important thing is work

Its work

The most important thing is work
