Lyrics Outside - Lou Reed

Outside

Outside the world’s a mindless child, outside
Outside reflects the worst of styles, outside
Inside when you’re in my arms
A mindless child is still to be born
Inside, baby, when we come inside
Outside the politics of greed, outside
Outside misbehavior seethes, outside
Mindless repression dominates the street
While I kneel down and kiss your feet
Inside, baby, when we come inside
Outside
Outside they don’t think they breed, outside
Outside emotion determines need, outside
Outside the world’s a mindless child
That we could bring to life in your arms
Inside, baby, when we come inside
Outside the politics of hate an greed, outside
Outside the world’s a mindless child, outside
But when I hold you in my arms
It’s a mindless child that you want
Inside, no matter 'bout the world outside
Inside, a baby’s what you want inside
