andy warhol lyrics

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

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know
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 Ali swear he was

Was he a controller?
A hip rock 'n' roller?
Did he realize the war was over
Or let them go on just because?

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know why

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know
Now he's painting passersby
In his corner of the sky

While Lou's still walking on the wild side
While Lou's still walking on the wild side

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know why

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know
Now he's painting passersby
In his corner of the sky, the sky

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?

Andy Warhol had to die
Andy Warhol had to die
Andy Warhol had to die
Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know why

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know why

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know why

Andy Warhol had to die
We don't know why
We don't know
Now he's painting passersby
In his corner of the sky, the sky, the sky, the sky
