Art Babe
By "Dr." Robert Driscoll

                   G                              C 
She had the face of a Picasso, the body of a Dali 
D                                     G 
Leather Shoes & Jackson Pollack tattoos 
G                                                             C 
She said "What's your sign? I gave her the typical line 
                 D 
Bout some neo classic post romantic modernist stuff 

                    G            C 
Well she's an art babe 
D                               G 
Dressed in black from head to toe 
             G            C 
She's an art babe 

Got to attend every opening show 

We spent 2 hours together in the back of the lounge 
Talking bout things that were oh so profound 
She said "Really deep" I said "I did it last week" 
I was in love with an aesthetic geek 

Well she's an art babe 
Doesn't believe in any artifice 
She's an art babe 
Got an earring pinned to every orifice 

Am 
Art babe come here & give me some news 

Tell me what's hot cause I've got no clues 
Am 
You seem to know just bout everything 
                 D 
You're my doesn't of love in our ethereal fling 

Art babe & me didn't make it too well 
There were too many rumours for her to quell 
About the ignorant guy who never read Dostoevsky 
Who spent his spare time down at the bay on a jet ski 

G                    C 
Art babe... Oh art babe don't leave me 
D                                                           G 
I didn't mean what I said about Cubism 
G                    C 
Art babe... Oh art babe don't leave me 
D                                                                G 
How am I gonna decorate my living room?
