Picture Painter Songtext
von Christie

[(J Christie)]

Y′say you're pretty good with a paintbrush
Y′tell me that you're painting the Queen
I want you to do me a favour
Look at me and paint what you see
'Cos I want you
To see myself
Standing up
On the shelf


Chorus
Picture painter
Picture painter
Paint me a picture of my life
Paint me a picture of my mind
So I can tell what I′m really like
So I can tell what I′m really like

Now you don't need to try and impress me
′Cos I ain't got the time nor the patience
And I don′t want to see a collection
Of Mona Lisa and the Renaissance
I want you
To see myself
Standing up
On the shelf

Repeat chorus

Picture painter, paint me a picture .
Picture painter, paint me a picture .
