"Standin' on the corner/ Suitcase in my hand/Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest/ And me, I'm in a rock 'n' roll band.". The unmistakably laconic lines of the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane" are from Lou Reed, who has assembled his Velvet and ample post-Velvet work in Pass Thru Fire: The Collected Lyrics. Songs from Reed albums including Transformer, New York and Magic and Loss are all here, facilitating analysis and singing-along alike, as with the particularly vexing "I'm sure you're certain it's a rarity me flirtin'" from Street Hassle Black and white photos, an introduction from Reed and a discography top things off.
