if you wanna survive in this city

you've gotta be dead

it's easier to be accepted

with air in your head

if you wanna befriend the inhabitants

go right ahead

i' m too fond of art so i prefer

to be a loner instead

something outrageous

should take place here today

let's hear it for wayne kramer

from the us of a

make way for jimmy osterberg

and don' t forget lou reed

it takes a lot of passion

to satisfy my need

if you wanna go places in this town

stop using your brain

be a simpleton john doe

or a bimbo plain jane

if you wish to gain approval

you have to know

that no edges are allowed

so keep your profile low

something explosive

should occur here todat

something radical

if i may have my say

kick out the jams

and let us kick down the doors

be who you are and just

ignore all the bores
