Picasso is for us a whimsical tune speaking of people pursuing something in life they don't enjoy. Enjoy.

lyrics

Hey there, Picasso,
I don't need you at all.
I don't need your money,
Or your country home.
By the time you retire
beside the fire you know
the hearth is growing cold.

Hey there, Picasso
How does your garden grow?
I tried planting roses,
But keep digging holes.
When did smiles,
come in type?
I'm still alive
Leave it on my stone.

He's up all night with his 45 and his yellow overcoat.
Picasso

Charlie's on the corner
Selling B's and C's
Puffing up a business
was a teenage dream

Picasso

Gracie's selling kisses
but she don't charge none
Charlie's got the alphabet she's saving for

Picasso

He's up all night with his 45 and his yellow overcoat and tie.
The lullabye in the ink is dry
He's an ordinary ghost

Hey there, Picasso
I don't need you at all.
I don't need your money,
Or your country home.
But I might televise the better lies I tell
I don't need at all.

I came down,
The open road,
The world was in the sky.

Hey there, Picasso
I don't need you at all.
