Trouble With Classicists
Lou Reed & John Cale The trouble with a classicist, he looks at a tree That's all he sees, he paints a tree The trouble with a classicist, he looks at the sky He doesn't ask why, he just paints a sky
The trouble with an impressionist, he looks at a log He doesn't know who he is, standing, staring, at this log And surrealist memories are too amorphous and proud While those downtown macho painters are just alcoholic
The trouble with impressionist There's a trouble with impressionist There's a trouble with impressionist There's a trouble with impressionist
The trouble with personalities, they're too wrapped up in style It's too personal, they're in love with their own guile They're like illegal aliens, trying to make a buck Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com They're driving gypsy cabs, but they're thinking like a truck
There's a trouble with personalities There's a trouble with personalities There's a trouble with personalities There's a trouble with personalities
I like the druggy downtown kids who spray paint walls and trains I like their lack of training, their primitive technique I think sometimes, it hurts you when you stay too long in school I think sometimes, it hurts you when you're afraid to be called a fool
There's a trouble with classicists There's a trouble with classicists There's a trouble with classicists There's a trouble with classicists
