Nico said this song is about Edie, and it makes some sense.
Edie used to wear a lot of leopard clothes, also a leopard hat, you can search it and you will find it, I think is from the Ciao Manhattan footage. And who else would wear a leopard skin-pill-box hat if is not Edie?
Bobby talks about her money,
Yes, I just wanna see
If it's really that expensive kind
You might think he loves you for your money
Edie came from a rich family, and was a socialite but she lost all her money with clothes, drugs, and all kind of expensive stuff.
Well, I asked the doctor if I could see you
...
You know, I don't mind him cheatin' on me
But I sure wish he'd take that off his head
Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat
I think there he's talking bout Warhol, it's well known that Bob didn't like Andy, cause he thought he ruined people lives. Lot of people says Andy ruined pretty girls lives just cause he was jealous. So maybe he's making a reference or something like that. Or just telling Edie to be careful.
Well, I see you got a new boyfriend
You know, I never seen him before
He's being ironical. Sure he has seen her new boyfriend, Bob Neuwirth, friend and the left hand of Dylan. Edie and Neurwith had a short-kind-of-relationship, so he's talking about him.
Well, I saw him
Makin' love to you
You forgot to close the garage door
Here maybe he's talking about Chelsea Hotel. It wouldn't be too strange to see them making love in one of those 'garage' rooms.
It seems he doesn't care but to be honest if he doesn't care about her he wouldn't have write the song.
So I think it's pretty clear.
I hope it'll be helpful.
