Lou Reed - Betrayed текст песни

Betrayed by the one who says she loves you

By the one who says she needs you

Above all other men

Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty

Her father did his duty

And I lie down betrayed

Justice taught her confidence

Her mother was like steel

Her cousins, theyre all convicts

She alone rose above that wheel

But a motorcyclist no matter how good

Is slave to the oncoming truck

And the poison of her father was

Her most pitiless luck

Betrayed by the one who says she loves you

By the one who says she needs you

Above all other men

Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty

Her father did his duty

And I lie down betrayed

Three of us lie in this bed

Night of infamy

One of us lies on our back

Her fathers in her head

And quick she turns and slaps my face

And with her eyes open wide she screams

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you

But shes looking right past me

Betrayed by the one who says she loves you

By the one who says that she needs you

Above all other men

Betrayed by her fragile, vicious beauty

Her father did his duty

And I lie down betrayed

And I lie down betrayed

I lie down betrayed
