Текст песни The Painting - David Byrne, Brian Eno

The Painting

Oh I will set — my easel out
And lay the paints — all round about
From dark to light — from red to blue
From hot to cool — in every hue
With oil and brush — and when applied
Confronts the mind — delights the eye
With modern words — and modern line
In time the surface come to life
As green becomes the happy wife
Who joins her spouse on pallet knife
They start to sing — they blend and shine
They run and drip — to reflect the light
With oil and brush — and when applied
Confronts the mind — delights the eye
With modern words — and modern line
And soon the surface comes to life
The alchemy — the mixer’s art
The colours blend — inside our hearts
