A Painting In Paris
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Yeah, yeah-oh
There's a painting in Paris, yeah, it's one of the best
Saw a woman beside it taking a selfie instead
We all got personal problems 'cause we're personal people
Taking pictures on purpose to paint the perfect appearance
But the clicks start coming
And they don't stop coming
And the people got something to say
And it feels great
When the people start talking
And the rumors start running out
I think I've got something to say
And it feels great
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
I have a photo of me and my family
It is so rare to see smiles without vanity
Everyday I make mistakes, but I'm glad to see
I can not cover them up instagrammically
But the clicks start coming
And they don't stop coming
And the people got something to say
And it feels great
When the people start talking
And the rumors start running out
I think I've got something to say
And it feels great
(Money)
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
No one can see
We are all pretenders
Hold out your phone
Smile and pull the trigger
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
Give it what you got right now
Take your best shot right now
Everybody's watching
Not everybody's talking
