Standard (EADGBE)

I have a friend, he's mostly made of paint

He wakes up, drives to work and straight back home again

He once cut one of my nightmares out of paper

I thought it was beautiful, I put it on a record cover

And I tried to tell him that he had a sense

Of color and composition so magnificent

And he said thank you, please, but your flattery

It is truly not becoming me

Your eyes are poor, you're blind, you see

No beauty ever could have come from me

I'm a waste

Of breath, of space, of time
