the murder mystery - the velvet underground lyrics

[verse 1 left: morrison]
candy screen wrappers of silkscreen fantastic
requiring memories
both lovely and guilt free
lurid and lovely with twilight of ages
luscious and lovely and filthy with laughter
laconic giggles
ennui fort the p-ssions
in order to justify most spurious desires
rectify moments
most serious and urgent
to hail upon the face of most odious time
requiring replies most facile and vacuous
with words nearly singed
with the heartbeat of p-ssions
spew forth with the grace of a tart going under
subject of great concern
n0ble origin [verse 1 right: reed]
denigrate obtuse and active verbs pr-nouns

skewer the sieve of optical sewer

release the handle that holds all the gates up

puncture the eyeb-lls that seep all the muck up

read all the books and the people worth reading

and still see the muck on the sky of the ceiling
[verse 2 left: tucker]

please raise the flag

rosy red carpet envy

english used here

is messenger is nervous

it’s no fun at all

out here in the hall [verse 2 right: yule]
mister moonlight

succulent smooth and gorgeous

isn’t it nice?

we’re number one and so forth

isn’t it sweet

being unique?
[verse 3 left: morrison]
for screeching and yelling and various offenses
lower the queen and bend her over the tub
against the state, the country, the committee
hold her head under the water please for an hour
for groveling and spewing and various offenses
puncture the bloat with the wing of a sparrow
the inverse, the obverse, the converse, the reverse
the sharpening wing of the edge of a sparrow
for suitable reckonings too numerous to mention
as the queen is fat she is devoured by rats
there is one way to skin a cat
or poison a rat it is hetero
four hear to three forthrightly stated” [verse 3 right: reed]
relent
and obverse
and inverse
and perverse
and reverse
the inverse
of perverse
and reverse
and reverse
and reverse
and reverse
and chop it
and pluck it
and cut it
and spit it
and sew it
to joy
on the edge
of a cyclops
and spinet it
to rage
on the edge
of a cylindrical minute
[verse 4 left: tucker]
put down that rag
simpering, callow and morose
who let you in?
if i knew, then i could get out
the murder you see
is a mystery to me [verse 4 right: yule]
dear mister muse
fellow of wit and gentry
medieval ruse
filling the shallow and empty
fools that duel
duel in pools
[verse 5 left: morrison]
to rembrandt and oswald
to peanuts and ketchup
sanctimonious sycophants stir in the bushes
up to the stand with your foot on the bible
as king i must order and constantly arouse
if you swear to catch up and throw up and up up
a king full of virgin kiss me and spin it
excuse to willow and wander dark wonders
divest me of robes-sutures harry and pig meat
the fate of a nation, rests hard on your bosoms
the king on his throne, puts his hand down his robe
the torture of inverse and silk screen and harry
and set the tongue squealing the reverse and inverse [verse 5 right: reed]
tantalize poets with visions of grandeur

their faces turn blue with the reek of the compost

as the living try hard to retain what the dead lost

with double dead sickness from writing at what cost

and business
and business
and reverse
and reverse
and set the brain reeling
the inverse
and perverse
[verse 6 left: tucker]
objections suffice
apelike and tactile b-ssoon
oboeing me
cordon the virus’ section
off to the left
is what is not right [verse 6 right: yule]
english arcane
tantamount here to frenzy
p-ssing for me
lascivious elder p-ssion
corpulent filth
disguised as silk
[verse 7 left: morrison]
contempt, contempt and contempt for the boredom
i shall poison the city and sink it with fire
for cordless and harry and apepig and scissor
the messenger’s wig seems fraught with desire
for blueberry picnics and pince-nez and magpies
the messenger’s skirt, would you please hook it higher
for children and adults all those under ninety
how truly disgusting. would you please put it down?
a stray in this fray is no condom worth saving
as king i’m quite just, but it’s just quite impossible
a robe and a robe and a robe and a bat
no double cl-ss inverse could make lying worth dying [verse 7 right: reed]
with cheap simian melodies

hillbilly outgush

for illiterate ramblings

for cheap understanding

for m-ss understanding

the simple
the inverse
the compost
the reverse
the obtuse
and stupid
and business
and business
and cheap, stupid lyrics

and simple m-ss reverse

while the real thing is dying
[verse 8 left: tucker]

exit the pig

enter the owl and gorgeous

king on the left
it on the right and primping
adjusting his nose
as he reads from his scroll [verse 8 right: yule]
folksy knockwurst

peel back the skin of french and

what do you find?

follicles intertwinning

succulent prose
wrapped up in robes
[verse 9 left: morrison]
off with his head
take his head from his neck off
requiring memories both lovely and guiltfree
put out his eyes, then cut his nose off
sanctimonious sycophants stir in the bushes
scoop out his brain
put a string where his ears were
all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
swing the whole mess at the end of the wire
scratch out his eyes with the tip of a razor
let the wire extend from the tip of a rose
caroline, caroline, caroline, oh!
but retains the remnants of what once was a nose
p-ss me my robe
fill my bath up with water [verse 9 right: reed]
jumpsuit and pig meat

and making his fortune

while making them happy

with the inverse and obverse
and making them happy

and making them happy

with the coy and the stupid
just another dumb lackey

who puts out one thing

while singing the other

but the real thing’s alone

and it is no man’s brother
[verse 10 left: tucker]

no one knows

no nose is good news and senseless

extend the wine

drink here, a toast to selfless

ten year old port

is perfect in court [verse 10 right: yule]
safety is nice

not an unwise word spoken

scary, bad dreams

made safe in lovely songs

no doom or gloom

allowed in this room
[verse 11 left: morrison]
casbah and cascade and rosehip and feeling
cascade and cyanide, rachaminoff, beethoven
skull silly wagon and justice and perverse
and reverse the inverse and inverse and inverse
blueberry catalog, questionable earnings
hustler’s lament and the rest will in due cry
to battle and scramble and browbeat and hurt
while chewing on minstrels and choking on dirt
disease please seems the order of the day
please the king, please the king, please the king day
casbah and cascade and rosehip and feeling
point of order return the king here to the ceiling [verse 11 right: reed]
oh, not to be whistled

or studied or hummed or

remembered at nights

when the i is alone

but to skewer and ravage

and savage and split

with the grace of a diamond, bellicose wit

to stun and to stagger with words as such stone

that those who do hear cannot again return home
[verse 12 left: tucker]
razzamatazz
there’s nothing on my shoulder
l-st is a must
shaving my head’s made me bolder
will you kindly read
what it was i brought thee [verse 12 right: yule]
h-llo to ray
h-llo to godiva and angel
who let you in?
isn’t it nice
the party?
aren’t the lights
pretty at night?
[verse 13 left: morrison]
sick leaf and sorrow and pincers not scissors
regard and refrain from the daughters of marriage
regards for the elders and youngest in carriage
regard and regard for the inverse and perverse
and obverse, and diverse, of reverse and reverse
regard from the sick, the dumb, and the camel
from pump’s storing water, like brain is to marrow
x-ray and filthy and cutting and then peeling
to skin and to skin and to bone and to structure
to livid and pallid and turgid and structured
and structured and structured and structured and structured
and regard and refrain, and regard and refrain
the sick and the dumb, inverse, reverse and perverse [verse 13 right: reed]
contempt, contempt, and contempt for the seething
for writhing and reeling and two-bit reportage
for sick with the body and sinister holy
the drown burst blue babies now dead on the seash0r-
the valorous horseman, who hang from the ceiling
the pig on the carpet, the dusty pale jissom
that has no effect for the sick with the see-saw
the inverse, obverse, converse, reverse of inverse
the diverse and converse of reverse and perverse
and sweet pyrotechnics, and let’s have another
of inverse, converse, diverse, perverse and reverse
h-ll’s graveyard is d-mned as they chew on their brains
the sl!ck and the sc-m, reverse, inverse and perverse
[verse 14 left: yule]
plowing while it’s done away
dumb and ready pig meat
sick upon the carpet
climb into the casket
safe within the parapet
sack is in the parapet
pigs are out and growling
slaughter by the seash0r-

see the lifeguard drowning
sea is full of fishes
fishes full of china
china plates are falling
all fall down
sick and shiny carpet
lie before my eyes-eyes
lead me to the ceiling
walk upon the wall-wall
tender as the green gr-ss
drink the whisky horror
see the young girls dancing
flies upon the beaches
beaches are for sailors
nuns across the sea-wall
black hood horseman raging
swordsman eating fire
fire on the carpet
set the house ablazing
seize and bring it flaming
gently to the ground-ground
dizzy bell miss fortune
fat and full of love-juice
drip it on the carpet
down below the fire hose
weep and whisky fortune
sail me to the moon, dear
drunken dungeon sailors
headless roman hors-m-n
the king and queen are empty
their heads are in the outhouse
fish upon the water
bowl upon the saviour
toothless wigged laureate
plain and full of fancy
name upon a letterhead
impressing all the wheat germ
love you for a nickel
maul you for a quarter
set the casket flaming
do not go gentle blazing [verse 14 right: reed]
sick upon the staircase
sick upon the pulpit
blood upon the pillow
climb into the parapet
see the church bells gleaming
knife that scr-pes a sick plate
dentures full of air holes
the tailor couldn’t mend straight
shoot her full of air holes
climbing up the casket
take me to the casket
t–th upon her red throat
screw me in the daisies
rip upon her holler
snip the seas fantastic
treat her like a sailor
full and free and nervous
out to make his fortune
either this or that way
sickly or in good health
p-ss upon a building
like a dog in training
teach to heel or holler
yodel on a sing song
down upon the carpet
tickle polyester
sick within the parapet
scr-w-ng for a dollar
sucking on a fire-hose
chewing on a rubber line
tied to chairs and rarebits
pay another player
oh you’re such a good lad
here’s another dollar
tie him to the bedpost
sick with witches’ covens
craving for a raw meat
bones upon the metal
sick upon the circle

down upon the carpet
down below the parapet
waiting for your bidding
pig upon the carpet
tumenescent railroad
neuro-anaesthesia -n-log
ready for a good look
drooling at the birches
swinging from the birches
succulent nebraska
