Lyrics Lou Reed – Images

I think images are worth repeating
Images repeated from a painting
Images taken from a painting
From a photo worth re-seeing

Some say images have no feeling, I think there’s a deeper meaning
Mechanical precision or so it’s seeming
Instigates a cooler feeling
I love multiplicity of screenings
Things born anew display new meanings
I think images are worth repeating and repeating and repeating

I’m no urban idiot savant spewing paint without any order
I’m no sphinx, no mystery enigma
What I paint is very ordinary
I don’t think I’m old or modern, I don’t think I think I’m thinking
It doesn’t matter what I’m thinking
It’s the images that are worth repeating
Images
Those images
Images
Those images

If you’re looking for a deeper meaning, I’m as deep as this high ceiling
If you think technique is meaning, you might find me very simple
You might think that images boring
