Additional Lyrics

3. I will paint my picture

Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Gray is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picaso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

Chorus 2. Mr. Jones and me look into the future

Stare at the beautiful women
“She’s looking at you.
Uh, I don’t think so. She’s looking at me.”
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

Chorus 3. Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio

Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
“She’s perfect for you, Man, there’s got to be
somebody for me.”
I wanna be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more
funky
When everybody loves you, son, that’s just about as
funky as you can be
