Lyrics for Trouble With Classicists by Lou Reed:
| | | Artist: | Lou Reed |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Trouble With Classicists | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 74 | | | | Lyrics: | 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
And 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 is
X4
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
They're driving gypsy cabs but they're thinking like a truck
The trouble with
personalities is X4
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
The trouble with classicists is X4 | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
