Hello it's me
! (I know I messed up the timing, but to play it correctly you'll have
! to listen to the original anyway. It's too complex to put on paper
! for me).
Andy it's me, haven't seen you in a while
I wished I talked to you more when you were alive
I thought you were self-assured when you acted shy
hello it's me
I really miss you, I really miss your mind
I haven't heard ideas like that for such a long, long time
I loved to watch you draw and watch you paint
but when I saw you last I turned away
When Billy Name was sick and locked up in his room
you asked me for some speed, I thought it was for you
I'm sorry that I doubted your good heart
things always seem to end before they start
Hello it's me, that was a great gallery show
your cow wallpaper and your floating silver pillows
I wish I paid more attention when they laughed at you
Hello it's me
Pop goes pop artist, the headline said
is shooting a put on, is Warhol really dead?
you get less time for stealing a car
I remember thinking as I heard my own record in a bar
They really hated you, now all that's changed
but I have some resentments that can never be unmade
you hit me where it hurt I didn't laugh
your diaries are not a worthy epitaph
Well now Andy, guess we've got to go
I hope some way somehow you like this little show
I know it is late in coming but it's the only way I know
hello it's me, goodnight Andy
goodbye Andy
! That'
