Lyrics
Artists Only
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.
I'm painting, I'm painting again
I'm painting, I'm painting again
I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning again
I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning my brain
Pretty soon now, I will be bitter
Pretty soon now, will be a quitter
Pretty soon now, I will be bitter
You can't see it till it's finished
I don't have to prove that I am creative!
I don't' have to prove that I am creative!
All my pictures are confused
And now I'm going to take me to you
