It's just a painting it's just a song

Wonderous plate miraculous rag on

O you draw yourself a little leaner

And you sing like somebody meaner

Than you are

Don't you tiger of paper?

A many false windowed thing

Bi-annual now you may

Cry but I doubt you will

While the sweetest pass away so

Swiftly

On this patriot day sound the national

Band sweep the plain you sunburnt and bland

Sail down a river of grey water

Life is a painting life is a song

You the poor painter average singer

Maybe you never went through the ringer

Like a cracked bell I continue to tell

The same sad tale and toll all my failures

To hold any note or I quaver and cast

About for the bluest port in a black and white

Storm o I've got lots of advice

Never listen to any advice

And when you blow blow hard
E
