Words, music and lyrics by Lou Reed

[Verse 1]
I know just where I'm goin'
I'm gonna to try for the kingdom, if I can
'Cause you know it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put the spike into my vein
Then you know that things aren't quite the same
When I'm rushin' from my run
And I feel like Jesus' son
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

[Verse 2]
I have made big decisions
I'm going to nullify my life
'Cause when the blood begins to flow
When it squirts up the dropper's necks
Then the smack goes right into my blood
When I'm closing in on death
And my head begins to grow
You can't help me, not you girls
All you guys with all your talk
You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
