lyrics

So you can paint the Sistine Chapel under a bottle cap,
And compose a great fugue while taking a nap,
You’ve written Ulysses twice over today,
Etched the Bard’s plays complete in the sand that the tide washed away
Invented cubism while having tea time
Out danced Baryshnikov when he was in his prime
You restaged Potemkin with escalating stairs
And one upped Senior Goudi by adding more flare

You project the power of the three tenors at once
And your rhyming couplets are so clever they make Pope look like a dunce,
You sculpted that urinal on the wall from dry sand
And the fractals of your drip paintings could only have been conceived by God’s hand

But it adds up to nothing when to the original you’re placed next
For appreciation comes with blood, sweat and context
