Perfect Day
Lou Reed
Just a perfect day
Drink Sangria in the park
And then later
When it gets dark, we go home
(Fun! But also, achingly sad! I wonder why??)
Just a perfect day
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later
A movie, too, and then home
(It's almost as though the music reflects some sort of backdrop of sadness and regret contrasted against the super fun day. HMMMMMM.)
Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on
(HANGING ON BY A THREAD.)
Just a perfect day
Problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
It's such fun
Just a perfect day
You made me forget myself
I thought I was
Someone else, someone good
(Because we are all garbage now.)
Oh, it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh, such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on
You just keep me hanging on
(Uh oh, I forgot today was a special day and glanced at the news briefly . . .)
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
(*Angry sputtering*)
