Michelangelo Lyrics

Try to count the colors
In a California sunset
Try to imagine the colors of the leaves
In a New England fall
You'd see that

[Chorus]
God painted better than
Michelangelo
God painted better than
Pablo Picasso

I took a swim in the ocean
I brought my underwater
Instamatic camera
Just to capture a glimpse
Of His work
The stroke of His brush
A piece of His canvas

[Chorus]

God Painted better than
God painted better than anyone

[Bridge]
There's nothing new
Underneath the sun
Artistic emulation
Of things that have already been done
But you and I
We can see through that
It's man second rate stab
At trying to recapture
The beauty of this world

[Chorus: x2]

Better than anyone
Better than anyone
Better than anyone
Better than anyone
