song for nico

Marianne Faithfull

Born in 1938
A good year for the Reich
She could not participate
She didn t have the right
For she was fatherless in the Fatherland

Now it s 1966
Andrew s up to all his tricks
And when Brian Jones is near
Nico doesn t feel so queer
She s in the shit, though she s innocent

Yesterday is gone
There s just today - No tomorrow
Yesterday is gone
There s just today - No more

Now it s Andy Warhol s time
Mystic 60 s on a dime
Though she kinda likes Lou Reed
She doesn t really have the need
Already in the shit, though she s innocent

And now she doesn t know
What it is she wants
And where she wants to go
And will Delon be still a cunt
Yes, she s in the shit, though she is innocent

Yesterday is gone
There s just today
No tomorrow
Yesterday is gone
There s just today
No more

Yesterday is gone
There s just today
No tomorrow
Yesterday is gone
There s just today
No more
