Words and music: lou reed & john cale
I really care a lot although I look like I do not
Since I was shot theres nobody but you
I know I look blase, party andys what the papers say
At dinner Im the one who pays - for a nobody like you
Nobody but you, a nobody like you
Since I got shot theres nobody but you
Wont you decorate my house
Ill sit there quiet as a mouse
You know me I like to look a lot - at nobody like you
Ill hold your hand and slap my face
Ill tickle you to your disgrace
Wont you put me in my proper place - a nobody like you
Sundays I pray a lot, Id 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 Ive got some shattered bone for nobody but you
Im still not sure I didnt die
And if Im dreaming I still have bad pains inside
I know Ill 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 Id ask to be in - with a nobody like you
Nobody like you, a nobody like you, all my life -
Its been nobodies like you
