Kinks - Art Lover Lyrics
Sunday afternoon theres something specialIts just like another world.Jogging in the park is my excuseTo look at all the little girls.Im not a flasher in a rain coat,Im not a dirty old man,Im not gonna snatch you from your mother,Im an art lover.Come to daddy,Ah, come to daddy,Come to daddy.Pretty little legs, I want to draw them,Like a degas ballerina.Pure white skin, like porcelain,Shes a work of art and I should knowIm an art lover.Come to daddy,And Ill give you some spangles.Little girl dont notice meWatching as she innocently plays.She cant see me staring at herBecause Im always wearing shades.She feeds the ducks, looks at the flowers.I follow her around for hours and hours.Id take her home, but that could never be,Shes just a substituteFor whats been taken from me.Ah, come to daddy, come on.Sunday afternoon cant last forever,Wish I could take you home.So, come on, give us a smileBefore you vanish out of view.Ive learned to appreciate youThe way art lovers do,And I only want to look at you.
