Van Morrison - "What's Wrong With This Picture?"

Uploaded on Dec 10, 2010 By Marco Buccino

Artist: Van Morrison

Album: What's wrong with this picture? (2003)

What's wrong with this picture?
There's something I'm not seeing here
What's wrong with this picture?
Something's not exactly clear
What's wrong with this picture?

Does it look like it's just another sting?
'Cos it don't mean a thing
If it ain't got that swing and ring a ding ding

What's wrong with this picture?
Doesn't anybody see
That's who everyone thought
That I used to be
What's wrong with this picture?
It's only just hanging on a wall
So you can go right back to sleep
And just forget about it all,

because...

I'm not that person anymore
I'm living in the present time
Baby, don't you understand
I've left all that jive behind

You can't believe what you read in the papers
Or half the news that's on TV
Or the gossip of the neighbors
Or anyone who doesn't want you to be free

I'm not that person anymore
I'm always living in the present time
Don't you understand
I left all that jive behind

What's wrong with this picture?
It's only hanging on the wall
Why don't we take it down and
Just forget about it 'cos that ain't me at all

"Goldfish Bowl"

Artist: Van Morrison

What will it take for them to leave me alone
Don't they know I'm just a guy who sings songs
I'm not promoting no hit record
And I don't have no TV show
And I don't have no reason to live in a goldfish bowl

I'm just doing my gigs
And I'm on and off the road
Everything I say is not meant to be set in stone
Just because they call me a celebrity
That does not make it true
'Cos I don't believe in the myth people
So why should you?

Jazz Blues & Funk
That's not Rock & Roll
Folk with a beat
And a little bit of Soul

I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
Tell me why should I have to live in this goldfish bowl?

Well the parasites and soggy vampires
Feeding on the public at large
Projecting their shadow onto everyone else

Well the newspaper barons
Are the scum of the lowest degree
And they prey on everybody
They prey on you and me

I'm singing Jazz Blues & Funk
Baby that's not Rock & Roll
Folk with a beat
And a little bit of Soul
I don't have no hit record
I don't have no TV show
So why should I want to live in this goldfish bowl?
