Pablo Picasso

The woman that I love is forty feet tall

She's a movie star, she's all in the papers

And everywhere I go people hand me quarters

And they pat me on the back, they treat me like I'm famous

I never leave her side 'cause today can be dangerous

And when the night arrives, the light hits her features

And the cars drive by just so they can see her

And she never bats an eye when someone takes her picture

And, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say

Gon' end up in the paper

Gon' end up in the paper, yeah

If I had a pistol, I'd brandish it and wave it

She's the only one alive that knows that I'm not crazy

She's gonna testify on my behalf down at the navy

So I can get some peace and provide for my babies

Got a stick and bottle, I'll pretend I got a razor

Helicopters and cameras all shooting for the station

They say that a wild man defending his lady

But for some odd reason they calling you a painting

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say

Mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher

Say, mister officer, if you come to take her

Then that means one of us gon' end up in a stretcher
