Testo Warrior King - Lou Reed
Testo della canzone Warrior King (Lou Reed), tratta dall'album The Sire Years: Complete Albums Box
I wish I was the warrior king in every language that I speak
Lord over all that I survey and all that I see I keep
Power omnipresent, undiminished uncontrolled
With a mass of violent fury at the center of my soul
I wish I was a warrior king, inscrutable benign
With a faceless charging power always at my command
Footsteps so heavy that the world
shakes, my rage instilling fear, ah, ha
Yet cautious firm but fair and good, the perfect warrior king
I wish I installed angels in every subject's house
Agents of my goodness no one would be without
A steak on every plate, a car for every house
And if you ever crossed me, I'd have your eyes put out
You don't exist without me, without me you don't exist
And if logic won't convince you then there's always this
I'm bigger, smarter, stronger, tough; yet sensitive and kind
And though I could crush you like a bug, it would never cross my mind
It wouldn't cross my mind to break
your neck or rip out your vicious tongue
It wouldn't cross my mind to snap your
leg like a twig or squash you like some slug
You are a violent messenger and I'm not above your taunts
And if you hit me,
you know I'll kill you, because I'm the warrior king
