Can I Paint You

If God makes the bad news
Than maybe he's just into the dark blues
And sure enough
There's room in this painting
For some more sunny hues

Cause I've got one note for Dalí
I find the lines have all starting blurring
And here I sit a series of brush strokes
Degas and Van Gogh views
Oh I want to paint you

You've got a one two punch
A Sargent of devotion
Rousseau out to lunch
And everybody knows it

You've got a one two punch
A Sargent of devotion
Rousseau out to lunch
And everybody knows it

The world's just a canvas
And maybe we should mix up the madness
And let the colors
Bleed into patterns
Slip into something new

So here's my memo to Monet
Your lilies float but they keep on drifting
It's tough to frame a moment that's borrowed
Picasso Pollock truth
Oh I want to paint you

You've got a one two punch
A Sargent of devotion
Rousseau out to lunch
And everybody knows it

You've got a one two punch
A Sargent of devotion
Rousseau out to lunch
And everybody knows it

I want to know
Can I paint you?
