Lyrics

Lou Reed wrote this song for Andy Warhol to cheer him up after he was shot by Valerie Solanis.

The title literally refers to the scar on Andy’s chest following the incident, but I also took it to mean like another kind of chest, a treasure trove of sorts, a trove of weird characters. View wiki
