Cover art for Make Up lyrics by Lou Reed

I got excited when I first heard this when he started singing, "you're a slick little girl" in that sarcastic tone - I thought he shared my views on girls who do all this make-up and completely mess up their faces, but then he said "we're coming out - out of our closets" and I realized it must be about gay pride.
