Lou Reed - Trouble With Classicists
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
the trouble with impressionist is
The trouble with impressionist is
the trouble with impressionist is
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
the trouble with personalities is
The trouble with personalities is
the trouble with personalities is
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
the trouble with classicists is
The trouble with classicists is
the trouble with classicists is
