    What about
    Stephanie Says
    or
    Candy Says

    both also by The Velvet Underground
    ?

    lol
    :D

    Jane Says, by a hair, any how.

    Though "Candy Says" is a personal favorite of mine.
    If I was to smile and I held out my hand
    If I opened it now would you not understand?

    I don't know what it is about that line but it's brilliant.

    "I'm gonna kick tomorrow"
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"

    I like this one too

    Jane says "I'm going away to Spain, when I get my money saved, I'm gonna start tomorrow"

    "Jane goes
    To the store at 8:00
    She walk up on St. Andrews
    She waits
    And gets her dinner there
    She pulls her dinner
    From her pocket
    Jane says
    I've never been in love
    I don't know what it is
    Only knows if someone wants her
    I want them if they want me
    I only know they want me
    "

    Any song that can mix un-deserved love with prostitution and heroin addiction and only two chords is good enough for me!

    :D

    great live track

    The original version, also a live version, from XXX\Self Titled is also a must have.

    Both have that great steel drum,
    but the Kettle Whistle does have that nice intro and count down.
    :D
