Disclaimer: I was stoned when I thought I figured it out.
Now that we got that out of the way, heres what I think is going on in this song.
It starts off, your in some creepy house, theres no way that wasn't done on purpose. So your in a creepy house and you hear Reed and the other guy talking (I'm pretty sure its Morrison). Lou Reed isn't happy with Morrison.
Then its Lou Reed and Maureen Tucker. This is when the muder occurs, Lou is preparing to kill Morrison, and Tucker knows.
Then the murder goes on, you can hear Morrison talking about it, and how hes gonna die. Lou Reed is going insane with hatred, which enables him to kill.
Maureen Tucker comes back instead of Morrison, and shes talks about how the murder is a mystery to her. Lou Reed is also talking about the murder, I think they're both talking to the police. Reed is being cunning to get out of it, Tucker is being innocent.
Reed starts to go more insane, Morrison is dead and spewing out phantom talk. Now you can see Reed's influence on Tucker when the two of them start to sing again.
Tucker makes less sense, as Reed is trying to get their stories to sound the same. But, since the whole time Lou Reed is really going insane, some of the things they're saying doesn't make sense. Really, Tucker is talking about how shes coping with the death, but then remembers that shes not supposed to say anything. Reed is trying again to talk his way out of things.
Morrison starts talking again, and you can tell he needs his story to be told, and Reed knows this too. Reed is truley starting to lose it now, and when him and Tucker start singing together its more evident.
Tucker is trying really hard to say what she should, but, alas, has to stay some-what to Reeds story. Finally Reed, at their last verse together, starts to rhyme and stay in sync with Tucker, a sign that hes totally losing it.
The next verse is still driving him crazy. When Tucker comes in, Reed talks about how hes going crazy (scary bad dreams, blah blah). Tucker just kinda tries to keep things cool, but can't really, shes just some housewife there.
I think whenever Morrison comes in, its at night, and Tucker is the morning. The next verse is the same with Morrison driving him crazy, then Tucker starts seeming crazy, but I really think its just the fact that Reed is crazy that makes Tucker seem to be going crazy.
Now Reed loses it (:
Morrison kinda gives an ode to whatever, and Reed loses it, and you all should know how sick it is
the music starts freaking out, and Reed is being taken to a mental hospital. When they talk the same, hes being talked to by doctors. They start injecting things, and the piano starts to get a little violent, and hes being brought back to conciousness or whatever sort of world the stuff he gets injected with takes him. The voices get kinda louder, and its obvious that Reed is totally gone.
Eh, if I killed a man, I'd be totally gone too, hah.
