《Work》歌词

[00:00:00] Work - Lou Reed (卢·里德)/John Cale

[00:00:10] Andy was a catholic

[00:00:12] The ethic ran through his bones

[00:00:14] He lived alone with his mother

[00:00:17] Collecting gossip and toys

[00:00:19] Every Sunday when he went to church

[00:00:21] He'd kneel in his pew and say

[00:00:24] It's work

[00:00:26] All that matters is work

[00:00:29] He was a lot of things

[00:00:31] What I remember most he'd say

[00:00:33] I've got to bring home the bacon

[00:00:35] Someone's got to bring home the roast

[00:00:38] He'd get to the factory early

[00:00:40] If you'd ask him he'd tell you straight out

[00:00:43] It's work

[00:00:48] No matter what I did it never seemed enough

[00:00:50] He said I was lazy I said I was young

[00:00:52] He said how many songs did you write

[00:00:55] I'd written zero I'd lied and said ten

[00:00:57] You won't be young forever

[00:00:59] You should have written fifteen

[00:01:02] It's work

[00:01:07] You ought to make things big

[00:01:09] People like it that way

[00:01:11] And the songs with the dirty words

[00:01:14] Make sure your record them that way

[00:01:16] Andy liked to stir up trouble

[00:01:19] He was funny that way

[00:01:21] He said it's just work

[00:01:26] Andy sat down to talk one day

[00:01:28] He said decide what you want

[00:01:30] Do you want to expand your parameters

[00:01:33] Or play museums like some dilettante

[00:01:35] I fired him on the spot

[00:01:38] He got red and called me a rat

[00:01:40] It was the worst word that he could think of

[00:01:43] And I've never seen him like that

[00:01:45] It's work

[00:01:46] I thought he said it's just work

[00:02:03] Andy said a lot of things

[00:02:05] I stored them all away in my head

[00:02:07] Sometimes when I can't decide what I should do

[00:02:10] I think what would Andy have said

[00:02:12] He'd probably say you think too much

[00:02:14] That's 'cause there's work that you don't want to do

[00:02:17] It's work

[00:02:18] The most important thing is work

[00:02:21] It's work

[00:02:23] The most important thing is work
