Lyrics Strawman - Live at Wembley Arena, London, UK, 7/4/1989 - Lou Reed
This is a song called "Strawman"
One, two
One, two, three, four
We who have so much and you who have so little
And you who don't have anything at all
We who have so much more than any one man does need
And you who don't have anything at all
Does anybody really need a million dollar movie?
Does anybody really need another million dollar star?
Does anybody really need to be told over and over
When you spit in the wind, it comes back at you twice as hard
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
Does anybody really need a billion dollar rocket?
Anyone who need a 60,000 dollars car?
Does anybody really need another president
Or the sins of Swaggart six, seven, eight and nine?
Does anybody really need another politician
Caught with his pants down, money sticking in his hole?
Does anybody really need another racist preacher?
When you spit in, the wind comes back at you twice as hard
Strawman, oh baby, going to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
Does anybody really need another faulty shuttle
Blasting off to the moon, Venus or Mars?
Does anybody really need another rock and roll singer
Whose nose, he said, has led him straight to God?
Does anybody really need another blank skyscraper?
Hey, if you're like me a minor miracle will do
A flaming sword or gold ark floating up the Hudson
When you spit in the wind, it comes right back at you
Strawman, going to the devil, babe
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
Strawman (strawman, strawman)
Strawman
