Brooklyn Baby

歌詞

They say I'm too young to love you I don't know what I need They think I don't understand The freedom land of the Seventies I think I'm too cool to know ya You say I'm like the ice I freeze I'm churning out novels like Beat poetry on Amphetamines I say I say Well, my boyfriend's in the band He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed I've got feathers in my hair I get down to Beat poetry And my jazz collection's rare I can play most anything I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm a Brooklyn baby They say I'm too young to love you You say I'm too dumb to see They judge me like a picture book By the colors, like they forgot to read I think we're like fire and water I think we're like the wind and sea You're burning up, I'm cooling down You're up, I'm down You're blind, I see But I'm free I'm free Well, my boyfriend's in a band He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed I've got feathers in my hair I get down to Beat poetry And my jazz collection's rare I can play most anything I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm talking about my generation Talking about that newer nation And if you don't like it You can beat it Beat it, baby You never liked the way I said it If you don't get it, then forget it So I don't have to fucking explain it And my boyfriend's in a band He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed I've got feathers in my hair I get high on hydroponic weed And my jazz collection's rare I get down to beat poetry I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm a Brooklyn baby Yeah, my boyfriend's pretty cool But he's not as cool as me 'Cause I'm a Brooklyn baby I'm a Brooklyn baby
