was he a painter   underground major   wasn't he conspiring with ralph nader   sunday afternoons in central park   was he a writer   a freedom fighter   did he make your world a little brighter   mondays after dark   andy warhol had to die   we don't know why   we don't know why   now he's painting passersby   in his corner of the sky   was he a thinker   a heavy drinker   was nixon wrapped around his finger   I've heard crazy alli swear he was   was he a controller   a hip rock n' roller   did he realize that the war was over   or let them go on just because   [Chorus]   while lou's still walking on the wild side   [Chorus]   now I've been working   nights at the diner   where a soup can serves as my reminder   did he ever draw JFK   has anyone seen him   talked to him lately   would you tell him that I'm waiting   sunday afternoons in central park
