Smalltown

1 comentario:

  1. (A propósito de la juventud de Andy Warhol, en "Songs for Drella"):

    When you're growing up in a small town
    when you're growing up in a small town
    when you're growing up in a small town
    you say, no one famous ever came from here

    When you're growing up in a small town
    and you're having a nervous breakdown
    and you think that you'll never escape it
    yourself or the place that you live

    Where did Picasso come from
    there's no Michelangelo coming from Pittsburgh
    if art is the tip of the iceberg
    I'm the part sinking below

    When you're growing up in a small town
    bad skin, bad eyes, gay and fatty
    people look at you funny
    when you're in a small town

    My father worked in construction
    it's not something for which I'm suited
    oh, what is something for which you are suited
    getting out of here

    I hate being odd in a small town
    if they stare let them stare in New York City
    as this pink eyed painting albino
    how far can my fantasy go

    I'm no Dali coming from Pittsburgh
    no adorable lisping Capote
    my hero, oh, do you think I could meet him
    I'd camp out at his front door

    There is only one good thing about small town
    there is only one good use for a small town
    there is only one good thing about small town
    you know that you want to get out

    When you're growing up in a small town
    you know you'll grow down in a small town
    there is only one good use for a small town

    You hate it and you'll know you have to leave
