Nobody But You Songtext
von Lou Reed / John Cale

I really care a lot
Although I look like I do not
Since I was shot
There′s nobody but you
I know I look blase (* accented on "e")
Party Andy's what the papers say
At dinner I′m the one who pays
For a nobody like you
Nobody but you, a nobody like you
Since I got shot, there's nobody but you
Won't you decorate my house
I′ll sit there quiet as a mouse
You know me I like to look a lot
At nobody like you
I′ll hold your hand and slap my face
I'll tickle you to your disgrace
Won′t you put me in my proper place
A nobody like you
Sundays I pray a lot
I'd like to wind you up and paint your clock I want to be what I am not
For a nobody like you
The bullet split my spleen and lung
The doctors said I was gone
Inside I′ve got some shattered bone
For nobody but you
Nobody but you, a nobody like you
Shattered bone, for nobody but you
I'm still not sure I didn′t die
And if I'm dreaming I still have bad pains inside
I know I'll never be a bride
To nobody like you
I wish I had a stronger chin
My skin was good, my nose was thin
This is no movie I′d ask to be in
With a nobody like you
Nobody like you, a nobody like you
All my life
It′s been nobodies like you
