The Times — Big Painting

[Verse 1] Through the years I've made big paintings Of lots of things that made us think And millions and millions of famous people too Dear Thelonious, Winston Churchill, Joe Orton and Georgie Best To name but a few but of course none compare with you Cos they all get left behind When I have you on my mind You mean so much to me Far more than any gallery Red, orange, green, blue and indigo Are just some up the colours you wear I follow the rainbow Expecting to find you there [Chorus] Oh oh, I've made a big painting Oh oh, right across the sky Oh oh, I'vе made a big painting of you Cos you're the rеason why I feel quite good [Verse 2] Come and see my masterpiece It took a lifetime I hope you'll like it I'm sure you'll think it's nice You made me happy you made me smile So I took my paint box and painted across the skies Who cares about the sight Cos I put an advert in the times Inviting my friends to paint The world in lots of different colours And switch of flashing lights A splendid time was had by all Satisfaction was guaranteed I dreamt it all in technicolor And sold the copyright [Chorus] Oh oh, I've made a big painting Oh oh, right across the sky Oh oh, I've made a big painting of you Cos you're the reason why I feel quite good [Instrumental] [Chorus] (2x) Oh oh, I've made a big painting Oh oh, right across the sky Oh oh, I've made a big painting of you Cos you're the reason why I feel quite good
