Lou Reed And John Cale Images Lyrics

Images Lyrics

I think images are worth repeating

images repeated from a painting

Images taken from a painting

from a photo worth re-seeing



I love images worth repeating

project them upon the ceiling

Multiply them with silk screening

see them with a different feeling



Images, oh, images

Images, oh, images



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



Images, oh, images

Images, images



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



Ah, repeating, images

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

Cars and cans and chairs and flowers

You
might find me personally boring

Hammer, sickle, Mao Tse Tong



Mao Tse Tong

Images, images, images



I think that it bears
repeating

the images upon the ceiling

I love images worth
repeating

and repeating and repeating



Images, images

Oh, images, oh, images
