Big Sky - Lou Reed

Big sky, big sky holding up the sun

Big sky, big sky holding up the moon

Big sky holding down the sea

But it can’t hold us down anymore

Big sky holding up the stars

Big sky holding Venus and Mars

Big sky catch you in a jar

But it can’t hold us down anymore

Big sky, big enormous place

Big wind blow all over the place

Big storm wrecking havoc and waste

But it can’t hold us down anymore

Ooohhh, big goals, big ambitious goals

Big talk, talking 'til I fold

Big wind talking through torrential love

But it can’t hold us down anymore

Big sin, big sin, big original sin

Paradise where I’ve never been

Big snake break the skin

But you can’t hold us down anymore

A big house holds a family

A big room it holds you and me

It’s a big mess and baby makes three

And you can’t hold us down anymore

Big news, they’re out of their heads

Big-big-big news, let’s fuck them instead

There’s a big joke did they think we were monks

But they can’t hold us down anymore

A big doll, big enormous eyes

Big love holds you in a vise

A big man who cut them down to size

They can’t hold us down anymore

Big sky, big sky holding up the sun

Big sky holding, holding up the moon

Big sky holding down the sea

But it can’t hold us down anymore

Oh, big doll, big enormous eyes

Big love holds you in a vise

A big man who cut them down to size, ah

They can’t hold us down anymore

Oh-oh, big sky

Big sky

Big sky

Ah, they can’t hold us down anymore
