Picasso'S Villa

Yeah I'm wide awake now, hours before the sun
Chopping wood and counting my blessings down to one
Two crows are singing songs from last night's rage
They know the ancient wisdom without reading a single page

Ohhh let's go down to the big show
Musicians and monkeys on display
Bring cheese, wine and candles and a belly full of greed
Nobody here will miss you til you got what they need

Yeah my friend she says she's homeless somewhere in outer space
Dresses like a hippie
But she doesn't have that face
I told her to start painting people she didn't like
Stop wearing that silly helmet when she rides her bike

Ohhh let's meet down at the villa
With Picasso, Jacqueline and Monet
Bring cheese, wine and candles and a belly full of greed
Nobody here will miss you til you got what they need

Have you ever said I love you to someone when they're mad?
Or bought yourself that one thing you know they wish they had?
Have you ever chased a rabbit in the middle of a working day?
Why the hell do I keep trying? In the end there's just Monet

Ohhh let's set up on the boardwalk and watch the sunset on the bay
Bring cheese, wine and candles and a belly full of greed
Nobody here will miss us til we got what they need

So it's the end of the story it didn't turn out as you planned
Yeah the cynic asked the hater
Why happiness was banned
And the rabbit he told the drummer
You know the monkey's got you beat
If you ever meet Picasso make sure he rubs your feet

Ohhh let's head out to the bullfight and watch the matador plié
Bring cheese, wine and flowers and a belly full of greed
Yeah no one here will love you til you got what they need"
