Let me paint you a picture
A picture that I know that you'd like
I'll let the colors run

It dries and then its done

And we'll go to the market and sell it

Its worth more to them than it is to you
You said you'd put it on the wall but I don't want you to
We'll go to the market and sell it


Let me build you a fortress
A fortress you can decorate

I'll find a way to pay
The bills to the estate


And we'll go to the market and sell it
Its worth more to them than it is to you
You said you weren't happy and you won't be happy here

We'll go to the market and sell it

Let me give you some money

Some money for a daring escape
We'll find a ticket cheap
Say good bye and you will leave


And we'll go to the market in paris
Its worth more in francs than it is in our banks

You said you weren't happy and you won't be happy here
We'll go to the market in paris
