The Ballad of Mona Lisa Songtext
von NateWantsToBattle

She paints her fingers with a close precision
He starts to notice empty bottles of gin
He takes a moment to assess the sins she′s paid for

A lonely speaker in a conversation
Her words were swimming through his ears again
There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you′ve paid for

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

Whoa, Mona Lisa
You're guaranteed to run this town
Whoa, Mona Lisa
I′d pay to see you frown


He senses something, call it desperation
Another dollar, another day
And if she had the proper words to say
She would tell him
But she′d have nothing left to sell him

Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe

Whoa, Mona Lisa
You′re guaranteed to run this town
Whoa, Mona Lisa
I'd pay to see you frown

Mona Lisa ya
Pleased to please you
Mona Lisa na

Say what you mean
Tell me I′m right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe


Whoa, Mona Lisa
You're guaranteed to run this town
Whoa, Mona Lisa
I′d pay to see you frown
Say what you mean
Tell me I'm right
And let the sun rain down on me
Give me a sign
I want to believe
There's nothing wrong with just a taste of what you′ve paid for
