Listen up and I'll tell a story |
| [00:35.33] |
About an artist growing old |
| [00:40.11] |
Some would try for fame and glory |
| [00:45.00] |
Others aren't so bold |
| [00:47.60] |
|
| [00:50.02] |
Everyone, and friends and family |
| [00:54.97] |
Saying, "Hey! Get a job!" |
| [00:59.55] |
"Why do you only do that only? |
| [01:05.22] |
Why are you so odd? |
| [01:10.53] |
We don't really like what you do. |
| [01:15.26] |
We don't think anyone ever will. |
| [01:20.26] |
It's a problem that you have, |
| [01:24.60] |
And this problem's made you ill." |
| [01:27.35] |
|
| [01:29.82] |
Listen up and I'll tell a story |
| [01:35.00] |
About an artist growing old |
| [01:40.17] |
Some would try for fame and glory |
| [01:44.93] |
Others aren't so bold |
| [01:47.53] |
|
| [01:50.57] |
The artist walks alone |
| [01:55.55] |
Someone says behind his back, |
| [01:59.82] |
"He's got his gall to call himself that! |
| [02:04.35] |
He doesn't even know where he's at!" |
| [02:09.17] |
The artist walks among the flowers |
| [02:14.24] |
Appreciating the sun |
| [02:18.35] |
He does this all his waking hours |
| [02:23.73] |
But is it really so wrong? |
| [02:26.13] |
|
| [02:29.80] |
They sit in front of their TV |
| [02:34.91] |
Saying, "Hey! This is fun!" |
| [02:40.57] |
And they laugh at the artist |
| [02:45.66] |
Saying, "He doesn't know how to have fun." |
| [02:51.06] |
The best things in life are truly free |
| [02:57.28] |
Singing birds and laughing bees |
| [03:02.60] |
"You've got me wrong", says he. |
| [03:07.13] |
"The sun don't shine in your TV" |
| [03:09.84] |
|
| [03:14.02] |
Listen up and I'll tell a story |
| [03:18.60] |

Everyone, and friends and family |

Saying, "Hey! Get a job!" |
| [03:43.73] |
"Why do you only do that only? |
| [03:48.11] |
Why are you so odd? |
| [03:54.15] |
We don't really like what you do. |
| [03:58.71] |
We don't think anyone ever will. |
| [04:03.20] |
It's a problem that you have, |
| [04:07.71] |
And this problem's made you ill." |

About an artist growing old. |
| [04:23.42] |
Some would try for fame and glory |
| [04:28.35] |
Others just like to watch the world. |
