歌曲名 The Story Of An Artist (Live)

歌手名 Daniel Johnston

Listen up and I'll tell a story

About an artist growing old

Some would try for fame and glory

Others aren't so bold

Everyone and friends and family

Saying Hey Get a job

Why do you only do that only

Why are you so odd

We don't really like what you do

We don't think anyone ever will

It's a problem that you have

And this problem's made you I'll

Listen up and I'll tell a story

About an artist growing old

Some would try for fame and glory

Others aren't so bold

The artist walks alone

Someone says behind his back

He's got his gall to call himself that

He doesn't even know where he's at

The artist walks among the flowers

Appreciating the sun

He does this all his waking hours

But is it really so wrong

They sit in front of their TV

Saying Hey This is fun

And they laugh at the artist

Saying He doesn't know how to have fun

The best things in life are truly free

Singing birds and laughing bees

You've got me wrong says he

The sun don't shine in your TV

Listen up and I'll tell a story

About an artist growing old

Some would try for fame and glory

Others aren't so bold

Everyone and friends and family

Saying Hey Get a job

Why do you only do that only

Why are you so odd

We don't really like what you do

We don't think anyone ever will

It's a problem that you have

And this problem's made you I'll

Listen up and I'll tell a story

About an artist growing old

Some would try for fame and glory

Others just like to watch the world
