VU
Candy Says- Velvet Underground
Candy says I’ve come to hate my body
and all that it requires in this world
Candy says I’d like to know completely
what others so discretely talk about
Candy says I hate the quiet places
that cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says I hate the big decisions
that cause endless revisions in my mind
I’m gonna watch the blue birds fly over my shoulder
I’m gonna watch them pass me by
Maybe when I’m older
What do you think I’d see
If I could walk away from me

I remember finding a used copy of the VU live in Texas 1969 with you at amoeba. I remember you doing your classic two fingered point at the panty V of that ablum cover. I remember listening to “I am beginning to see the light” at full volume with you and that kid with the skull tattoo on his neck who was sober (ie only taking somas) for three months. VU is UV.
