"Paint That Funky Mural" by Keith Nelson

Once I was a classical painter
Paintin' like da Vinci
Never had no problems
It truly was a sinch, see?

And everything around me
Got to start feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
That this classical crap definitely had to go

Yea they were paintin' and sprayin'
And movin' to the new one
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted

Paint that funky mural white boy
Paint that funky mural white
Paint that funky mural white boy
Lay down all the basics and paint that funky mural 'til you die
'Til you die, oh, 'til you die

I tried to comprehend this
I thought they were playin' a trick
How could I be so foolish (how could I)
To not see I was paintin' with a stick

But I still kept on paintin
And not doing so well I might say
I said I gotta go back there
To see if those things were still the same

Paint that funky mural white boy
Paint that funky mural white
Paint that funky mural white boy
Lay down all the basics and paint that funky mural 'til you die
'Til you die, oh, 'til you die

Now it was very difficult
Changin' these Picaso minds
And things were really quaky
I thought I'd have to leave free-paintin' behind

But now it's a whole lot better
I'm paintin' in every way
But I'll never lose that emotion
Of how I learned my lesson that day

When they were paintin' and sprayin'
And movin' to the new one
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted

Paint that funky mural white boy
Paint that funky mural right
Paint that funky mural white boy
Lay down all the basics and paint that funky mural 'til you die
'Til you die, oh, 'til you die

They shouted
Paint that funky mural
Paint that funky mural
Paint that funky mural
Paint that funky mural
