As requested: Picasso reassembled Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, He'll follow the PreRaphaelite script, Seurate has agree to join the dots, To save himself from being whipped. Derain & Matisse have promised, That they'll always colour by the numbers. While Salvador Dali committed to keep it real, As a street cred rumbler.
I know, I taken advantages And I haven't paid my dues. Now I've been painted into a corner, With the rock n roll reactionary blues.
Frank Lloyd Wright, Has stopped the waters falling, He realized apartment blocks were calling. Piet Mondrian has started to using the circle, Primary colours squared wasn't the right vehicle. David Hockney will reject the pile of cash, He’s heartily embarrassed at making such a splash. Jackie Pollock has taken on acting roles, Since he realized the mistake that was Blue Poles.
CHORUS
Andy Pandy Warhol has given up his stint, And he's now making wallpaper in his famous screen print. Poor Antoni Gaudi can't work out what to be, He recognized his buildings belonged beneath the sea. Jorn Utzon's orange is being reassembled as we speak, Can’t have a house of opera that doesn't reach the peak. Henry Moore's no more - he couldn't take the pace, He couldn't make a sculpture with a recognizable face.
CHORUS
Poor Orson Welles: poor Orson, He’s swollen: fat. He's bloated and forlorn, That is that. Someone nicked, his little Rosebud. When he, foolishly, Left it on the lawn.
CHORUS

G'day Ray. One of your best I reckon ! Vocals suit the cool grungey, bluesy guitar bed very well . Your rapidly emerging video skills are evident here. "Blue Poles" my goodness, I had forgotten about that! Would like to see the lyrics to this song. Enjoyed this song and video package. Best for 2021. Gary.

Really nicely done! I'm getting an 80's kinda vibe for some reason - it has a really unique tone to it. Really enjoyed the lyrics, and the bluesy groove went perfectly with everything. Almost reminds me of Talking Heads a little bit.
Wow, Ray. Really cool vid!! I started quoting my favorite lines of lyrics, but soon realized it was about the same length. So I love the lyrics. A great creative connection of music and art.
Professorial and very entertaining, Ray! Nice to have the video embedded for the less arty such as myself to get the references. Slide guitar and steadily thumping sound track works well.
OH MY! Quite a lecture. A visual mosaic with thoughtful lyrics combined with a genre that shouldn't fit but yet it comes together in a compelling piece. Well done! moto
Thanks Moto, the video took an hour I reckon..the song, once I'd upped it to 85 BPM didn't take lon either.

Ta Deryk, The slide gives the blues & the glues to this one.

Thanks Robert, I wasn't going to bother but there were a couple of comments about having to look up folk so thought it fair that I provide some illumination.
