We’ve never shared a scratch track with the public before but we wanted to share this with you. RIP, Lou.
Lou sat at the corner table, leaning on the glass
Flanked by his publicist and a small Tibetan Monk
He had a smoker’s cough and a poet’s eyes
Like any guy down on his luck
–
Billy walked by barking like a dog
There was a white russian mixing white russians behind the wall
Lou said “1 chord’s fine, 2 chords are pushing it, 3 chords and you’re into jazz.”

Lou said, “I think life is far too short to concentrate on the past. I’d rather look into the future.”
And Lou said, “Life is like sanskrit read to a pony.”
–
Goodbye Crash Test Dummies, Goodbye REM
Goodbye CBGB’s, Goodbye Talking Heads
A hustle here, a hustle there
Little Lou’s gone everywhere.
Check back in 2 weeks to hear the finished version. RIP, Lou.
