Well some people try to pick up girls
And get called assholes
This never happened to pablo picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare and
So pablo picasso was never called an asshole
Well the girls would turn the color
Of the avacado when he would drive
Down their street in his el dorado
He could walk down you street
And girls could not resist his stare
Pablo picasso never got called an asshole
Not like you
Alright
Well he was only 53
But girls could not resist his stare
Pablo picasso never got called an asshole
Not in new york
Oh well be not schmuck, be not abnoxious,
Be not bellbottom bummer or asshole
Remember the story of pablo picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare
Pablo picasso was never called an asshole
Alright this is it
Some people try to pick up girls
And they get called an asshole
This never happened to pablo picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare and so
Pablo picasso was never called...
The lyrics PABLO PICASSO of JOHN CALE is also present in the album Conflict and catalysis (2012)
John Cale è un musicista e compositore gallese, nato nel 1942. Dopo aver studiato musica a Londra e New York, si è unito ai The Velvet Underground nel 1965, contribuendo in modo significativo al loro sound sperimentale e distintivo nei primi due album. Cale introdusse il suono drone della viola, elemento caratteristico di brani come "Venus In Furs". Dopo l'album *White Light/White Heat*, ha lasciato la band a causa di divergenze musicali con Lou Reed. Cale desiderava continuare ad esplorare sonorità sperimentali, mentre Reed si orientava verso canzoni pop più semplici. Cale ha intrapreso una carriera solista di successo, pubblicando album come *Vintage Violence* (1970) e *Paris 1919* (1973), influenzando generi musicali come il rock sperimentale, l'ambient e la musica elettronica. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Gideon", "The Endless Plain of Glass" e "Hallelujah".
