Letra de When I Go Out With Artists
When I go out with artists They talk about language And the cubists and the dadaist And I try to catch their meanings And keep up with all of the martinis I don't know which Should be my favorite paintingsIf I could see, if I could see If I could see all the symbols Unlock what they mean Maybe I could, maybe I could Maybe I could meet the artists And get to know them personallyIf I were David Byrne I'd go to galleries and not be too concerned And I would have a cup of coffee And I'd find my surroundings quite amusing And people would ask me Which were my favorite paintings?If I could see, if I could see If I could see all the symbols Unlock what they mean Maybe I could, maybe I could Maybe I could meet the artists And get to know them personallyWhat if the artists ran the TV? All the ads would be For fine Scotch whiskey Glenfiddich, Glenlivet The whole single malt familyThe artists of the future Will make up new things And different nomenclatures And they'll stand amongst their pictures And they'll sing and laugh And quote from scriptures And when they go home They'll dream of brilliant paintingsIf I could see, if I could see If I could see all the symbols Unlock what they mean Maybe I could, maybe I could Maybe I could meet the artists And get to know them personallyIf I could see, if I could see If I could see all the symbols Unlock what they mean Maybe I could, maybe I could Maybe I could meet the artists And get to know them personally
