[00:03.802] Lou Reed -The Raven (Live)
[03:46.21] Once upon a midnight dreary
[03:47.691] As I pondered weak and weary
[03:50.430] Over many a quaint and curious
[03:51.900] Volume of forgotten lore
[03:54.700] While I nodded nearly napping
[03:56.490] Suddenly there came a tapping
[03:57.990] As of some one gently rapping
[04:00.560] Rapping at my chamber door
[04:02.150] 'Tis some visitor I muttered
[04:04.189] Tapping at my chamber door
[04:05.718] Only this
[04:08.158] Only this and nothing more
[04:13.598] Muttering I got up weakly
[04:14.958] Always I've had trouble sleeping
[04:16.838] Stumbling upright my mind racing
[04:18.618] Furtive thoughts flowing once more
[04:20.887] I there hoping for some sunrise
[04:23.746] Happiness would be a surprise
[04:25.706] Loneliness no longer a prize
[04:27.376] Rapping at my chamber door
[04:28.696] Seeking out the clever bore
[04:29.996] Lost in dreams forever more
[04:31.736] Only this and nothing more
[04:41.215] Hovering my pulse was racing
[04:43.725] Stale tobacco my lips tasting
[04:45.375] Scotch sitting upon my basin
[04:46.855] Remnants of the night before
[04:49.375] Came again
[04:50.25] Infernal tapping on the door
[04:51.165] In my mind jabbing
[04:52.45] Is it in or outside rapping
[04:54.273] Calling out to me once more
[04:55.693] The fit and fury of Lenore
[04:58.253] Nameless here forever more
[05:02.242] And the silken sad uncertain
[05:04.342] Rustling of the purple curtain
[05:06.272] Thrilled me filled me
[05:08.262] With fantastic terrors never felt before
[05:10.711] So that now oh wind stood breathing
[05:16.70] Hoping yet to calm my breathing
[05:18.20] 'Tis some visitor entreating
[05:20.380] Entrance at my chamber door
[05:21.870] Some lost visitor entreating
[05:23.740] Entrance at my chamber door
[05:25.380] This it is and nothing more
[05:27.470] Deep into the darkness peering
[05:29.100] Long I stood there
[05:30.820] Wondering fearing
[05:32.180] Doubting dreaming fantasies
[05:33.870] No mortal dared to dream before
[05:35.420] But the silence was unbroken
[05:37.170] And the stillness gave no token
[05:38.530] And the only word there spoken
[05:39.820] Was the whispered name Lenore
[05:42.920] This I thought
[05:43.730] And out loud whispered from my lips
[05:45.270] The foul name festered
[05:46.700] Echoing itself
[05:47.970] Merely this and nothing more
[05:51.460] Back into my chamber turning
[05:52.680] Every nerve within me burning
[05:54.70] When once again I heard a tapping
[05:55.349] Somewhat louder than before
[05:56.579] Surely said I
[05:57.779] Surely that is something at my iron staircase
[05:59.949] Open the door to see what threat is
[06:01.489] Open the window free the shutters
[06:03.149] Let us this mystery explore
[06:04.748] Oh bursting heart be still this once
[06:07.168] And let this mystery explore
[06:08.657] It is the wind
[06:09.377] It is the wind and nothing more
[06:11.727] Just one epithet I muttered as Inside
[06:14.27] I gagged and shuddered
[06:14.917] When with manly flirt and flutter
[06:16.927] In there flew a stately raven
[06:20.577] Sleek and ravenous as any foe
[06:22.977] Not the least obeisance made he
[06:25.337] Not a minutes gesture towards me
[06:27.987] Of recognition or politeness
[06:33.435] But perched above my chamber door
[06:35.155] This fowl and salivating visage
[06:37.05] Insinuating with its knowledge
[06:38.605] Perched above my chamber door
[06:40.55] Silent sat and staring
[06:41.335] Nothing more
[06:42.205] Askance askew
[06:47.294] The self's sad fancy smiles at you I swear
[06:50.153] At this savage viscous countenance it wears
[06:55.193] Though you show here shore and shaven
[06:57.573] And I admit myself forlorn and craven
[06:59.943] Ghastly grim and ancient raven
[07:02.263] Wandering from the opiate shores
[07:03.822] Tell me
[07:04.412] Tell me
[07:04.992] Tell me what thy lordly name is
[07:06.462] That you are not nightmare sewage
[07:07.922] Some dire powder drink or Inhalation
[07:09.672] Framed from flames of downtown lore
[07:11.790] And the raven sitting lonely
[07:13.620] Staring sickly at my male sex only
[07:15.550] That one word
[07:16.450] As if his soul in that one word
[07:17.950] He did out pour pathetic
[07:23.360] Nothing farther than he uttered
[07:25.239] Not a feather then he fluttered
[07:26.589] Till finally was I that muttered as I stared
[07:28.889] Dully at the floor like you
[07:31.719] Other friends have flown and left me
[07:34.858] Flown as each and every hope has flown before
[07:39.917] As you no doubt will before tomorrow
[07:45.115] Then I felt the air grow denser
[07:47.505] Perfumed from some unseen incense
[07:50.405] As though accepting angelic intrusion
[07:53.235] When in fact I felt collusion
[07:55.45] Before the guise of false memories respite
[07:57.605] Respite
[07:58.645] Respite through the haze of cocaine's glory
[08:01.05] I smoke and smoke the blue vial's glory
[08:03.995] To forget
[08:05.365] At once
[08:06.325] The base Lenore
[08:07.644] Prophet said I thing of evil
[08:09.824] Prophet still if bird or devil
[08:11.544] By that heaven that bend above us
[08:12.914] By that god we both Ignore
[08:14.594] Tell this soul with sorrow laden
[08:16.944] Willful and destructive Intent
[08:19.53] Tell me how had lapsed a pure heart lady
[08:21.853] To the greediest of needs
[08:23.673] Sweaty arrogant dick less liar
[08:26.533] Who ascribed to nothing higher
[08:28.103] Than a jab from dick to needle
[08:30.192] Straight to betrayal and disgrace
[08:32.132] The conscience showing not a trace
[08:35.971] Be that word our sign of parting
[08:37.991] Bird or fiend I yelled upstarting
[08:39.701] Get thee back into the tempest
[08:41.41] Into the smoke filled bottle's shore
[08:42.641] Leave no black plume as a token
[08:44.591] Of the slime thy soul hath spoken
[08:46.621] Leave my loneliness unbroken
[08:49.270] Quit as those have quit before
[08:50.890] Take the talon from my heart
[08:53.240] And see that I can care no more
[08:54.930] Whatever mattered came before
[08:56.570] I vanish with the dead Lenore
[08:58.140] Quoth the raven nevermore
[09:00.28] Still is sitting silent sitting
[09:01.318] Above a painting silent painting
[09:02.718] Of the forever silenced wh**e
[09:04.238] And his eyes have all the seeming
[09:05.818] Of a demon's that is dreaming
[09:06.958] And the lamplight over him
[09:08.78] Streaming throws his shadow to the floor
[09:10.38] I love she who hates me more
[09:12.668] I love she who hates me more
[09:14.618] And my soul shall not be lifted from that shadow
[09:17.427] Nevermore

[07:26.589] Till finally was I that muttered as I stared
[07:28.889] Dully at the floor like you
[07:31.719] Other friends have flown and left me
[07:34.858] Flown as each and every hope has flown before
[07:39.917] As you no doubt will before tomorrow
[07:45.115] Then I felt the air grow denser
[07:47.505] Perfumed from some unseen incense
[07:50.405] As though accepting angelic intrusion
[07:53.235] When in fact I felt collusion
[07:55.45] Before the guise of false memories respite
[07:57.605] Respite
[07:58.645] Respite through the haze of cocaine' s glory
[08:01.05] I smoke and smoke the blue vial' s glory
[08:03.995] To forget
[08:05.365] At once
[08:06.325] The base Lenore
[08:07.644] Prophet said I thing of evil
[08:09.824] Prophet still if bird or devil
[08:11.544] By that heaven that bend above us
[08:12.914] By that god we both Ignore
[08:14.594] Tell this soul with sorrow laden
[08:16.944] Willful and destructive Intent
[08:19.53] Tell me how had lapsed a pure heart lady
[08:21.853] To the greediest of needs
[08:23.673] Sweaty arrogant dick less liar
[08:26.533] Who ascribed to nothing higher
[08:28.103] Than a jab from dick to needle
[08:30.192] Straight to betrayal and disgrace
[08:32.132] The conscience showing not a trace
[08:35.971] Be that word our sign of parting
[08:37.991] Bird or fiend I yelled upstarting
[08:39.701] Get thee back into the tempest
[08:41.41] Into the smoke filled bottle' s shore
[08:42.641] Leave no black plume as a token
[08:44.591] Of the slime thy soul hath spoken
[08:46.621] Leave my loneliness unbroken
[08:49.270] Quit as those have quit before
[08:50.890] Take the talon from my heart
[08:53.240] And see that I can care no more
[08:54.930] Whatever mattered came before
[08:56.570] I vanish with the dead Lenore
[08:58.140] Quoth the raven nevermore
[09:00.28] Still is sitting silent sitting
[09:01.318] Above a painting silent painting
[09:02.718] Of the forever silenced wh e
[09:04.238] And his eyes have all the seeming
[09:05.818] Of a demon' s that is dreaming
[09:06.958] And the lamplight over him
[09:08.78] Streaming throws his shadow to the floor
[09:10.38] I love she who hates me more
[09:12.668] I love she who hates me more
[09:14.618] And my soul shall not be lifted from that shadow
[09:17.427] Nevermore
