I Believe Lyrics by John Cale

I Believe Lyrics

    Words and music: lou reed & john cale

    Valerie solanis took the elevator got off at the 4th floor
    Valerie solanis took the elevator got off at the 4th floor
    She pointed the gun at andy saying you cannot control me anymore

    And i believe there's got to be some retribution
    I believe an eye for an eye is elemental
    And i believe that something's wrong if she's alive right now

    Valerie solanis took three steps pointing at the floor
    Valerie solanis waved her gun pointing at the floor
    From inside her idiot madness spoke and bang
    Andy fell onto the floor

    And i believe life's serious enough for retribution
    I believe being sick is no excuse and
    I believe i would've pulled the switch on her myself

    When they got him to the hospital his pulse was gone
    They thought that he was dead
    His guts were pouring from his wounds onto the floor
    They thought that he was dead
    Not until years later would the hospital do to him what she could not
    Andy said, "where were you, you didn't come to see me"
    Andy said, "i think i died, why didn't you come to see me"
    Andy said, ""t hurt so much, they took blood from my hand"

    I believe there's got to be some retribution
    I believe there's got to be some retribution
    I believe we are all the poorer for it now


    Visit me, why didn't you visit me
    Visit me, why didn't you visit me
