Superchunk - Art Class lyrics

rate me

here we go in spurts

the colors nearly burst

and you may notice a shaking in your eye

mataphors the worst

but are you being driven or do you drive?

on a trip between two points in your infinity net

obliterate yourself from the scene but please do not forget

cover me with spots - black and red dots

until i'm crowding up your visual field

bare assed and beautiful you're climbing on your art like a

shield

now i want - i say sang - i do

everybody dance now

welcome to art class

forget your acid-free paper and glass

welcome to art class

be a bride stripped bare of the past

why so serious?

why so serious when it's only your life thats at stake

why so serious

when your life is the art that you make

life is the art that you make

sell anything you want

but it's worth no more and no less than a kiss

try not to represent even that

cuz this moment is all that it is

in a garden of glass theres a red plastic tree

so shit in a can but your art is not free

i sang - i want - i do

and everybody dances with me

welcome to art class

and yes it does involve shaking your ass

welcome to art class

always keep your face to the glass

why so serious?

why so serious - when it's only your life thats at stake

why so serious - when your life is the art that you make

life is the art that you make

why so serious?
