Lou Reed

Lou Reed - Strawman lyrics

to you who have so little

to you won 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 need another million dollar movie

Does anybody need another million dollar star

Does anybody need to be told over and over

Spitting in the wind comes back at you twice as hard

Strawman, going straight to the devil

Strawman, going straight to hell

Does anyone really need a billion dollar rocket

Does anyone need a $60,000 car

Does anyone need another President

or the sins of Swaggart parts 6, 7, 8 and 9

Does anyone need another politician

caught with his pants down

money sticking in his hole

Does anyone need another racist preacher

Spittin' in the wind can only do you harm

Does anyone need another faulty shuttle

blasting off to the Moon, Venus or Mars

Does anyone need another self-righteous rock and roll singer

whose nose he says has led him straight to God

Does anyone need yet another blank skyscraper

If you're like me I'm sure a minor miracle would do

A flaming sword or maybe a gold ark floating up the Hudson

When you spit in the wind it comes right back at you
