Текст песни The Proposition - Lou Reed
You
can′t
have
the
flower
without
the
root
You
can't
have
the
fire
without
the
soot
Even
a
stripper
needs
her
red
tasseled
suit
And
we
were
meant
to
be
In
every
war
the
North
needs
the
south
And
everyone
knows
all
assholes
have
a
mouth
Without
mystery
what
would
writers
talk
about
And
we
were
meant
to
be
An
apple
needs
pits
the
way
melons
need
seed
Your
foot
needs
your
arm
and
your
arm
needs
your
knee
And
one
of
these
days
I
know
you
will
need
me
We
were
meant
to
be,
ooohhh,
we
were
meant
to
be
You′re
mother's
an
ogre
your
father's
a
scamp
You
won′t
see
my
parents
honored
on
any
stamp
But
just
like
a
bulb
screws
into
a
lamp
We
were
meant
to
be
The
way
the
AIDS
needs
a
vaccine,
somewhere
a
vaccine
needs
AIDS,
The
way
a
victim
needs
life,
a
life
needs
to
be
saved
And
out
of
all
of
this
will
come
a
better
way
We
were
meant
to
be
So
you
can
go
to
Europe,
Los
Angeles
or
Mars
You
can
stand
on
a
building
throwing
cinder
blocks
on
cars
You
can
practice
deep
voodoo,
but
like
me
you′ll
see
We
were
meant
to
be,
we
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
We
were
meant
to
be
