Lyrics Lou Reed – Mama’s Got A Lover
Text:
Mama’s got a lover
A painter I am told
She’s getting out of real estate
For the art scene down in old Soho
Mama’s got a lover
He owns a gallery
she says he likes collages but
the money’s in graffiti
Money’s in graffiti
Mama’s got a lover
I met him yesterday
She says she hopes I like him
Maybe I’ll send him a card on father’s day
Father’s day
Mama’s got a lover
they’re backing a film
it’s about a working mother
who gives birth to black and white Siamese twins
Black and white Siamese twins
Mama’s got a lover
he’s got something to say
he says he’s into dirt and rot
The essence of «urban decay»
«Urban decay»
Mama’s got a lover
I met him yesterday
She says she hopes I like him
Maybe I’ll send him a card on father’s day
Father’s day
Mama’s got a lover
I met him yesterday
she’s starting a new chapter
I wish she was on the last page
The last page
Mama’s got a lover
I met him yesterday
She says she hopes I like him
Maybe I’ll send him a card on father’s day
Father’s day
Mama’s got a lover (Mama’s got a lover)
mama’s got a lover (Mama’s got a lover), oh
Mama’s got a lover (Mama’s got a lover)
my mama’s got a lover (Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
(Mama’s got a lover)
