Lyrics

mona lisa (Music-Katz, Lyric-Katz/Andrews)

I could never even think of you inside this place
go scan the photograph, hide behind the acetate
and you could say that I'm decidedly distracted so
before I'm a vegetable, conjur up a chemical
and we could start this day with one more cup of overdrive
they found trace elements, call in the elephants

Mona Lisa, half of a smile is still too wide
got a lot of people worried
hard to please her, cut through countenance so dry
but I'm not in any hurry

I've had thoughts on this that you just might find interesting
take that and collate, kiss that sticky acetate
and when the work is done, I stare and see the film go by
that's in your retina, so glad I met ya'
such a clever interaction between agents of love.

Mona Lisa, half of a smile is still too wide
got a lot of people worried
hard to please her, cut through countenance so dry
but I'm not in any hurry
no, I'm taking my time?
