i went to the exhibition and i saw
i went to the art exhibition and i saw
mugs and magnets calenders and purses
books and set menus jewellery box and postcards
is this the new meaning of art
i went to see picasso and all his work
he was dead he wasnt there you know
but i saw umbrellas and tshirts
bags and storybooks coasters and jigsaw puzzles
tea-towels and soap
is this the new meaning of art
take that clown and put him on a cloud
take that cow and cut it in half
and put it in some salty kinda fluid
or maybe it's formaldehyde
i'll take my mother and put her in the hall
my father i'll hang him from the wall
and my sister you just stand there and don't say a word
my brother you look good where you are
i'm gonna turn you into a cat
and i'm gonna make my lover wear a velvet hat
i'm gonna have chocolate dripping from my ass
lie under the floor and look at girls pass by
is this the new meaning of art
take a piece of it home with you
have fun with your friends
make a list be imaginative just like an artist
is this the new meaning of art
