Alt-J - Portrait

Текст песни: Portrait

Tell me how you wanna be portrayed, now
 You can have it all, you know that you can have it all
 That I love you, yeah, I love you
 Donatello, Frida Kahlo, Holbein
 You can have it all, you know that you can have it all
 That I love you, yeah I love you

 Now paint me a picture
 And draw yourself drawing a piece of paper with pencil
 ‘Cause you can’t afford to misrepresent me
 I want an imitation of reality

 Gather all your kings and other things
 That you know my good
 You might tell me what, ‘cause
 Do you think that these are my good nature
 You establish this good nature

 Buy me aristocracy
 Now listen to me, yeah,
 Your whores come and go to sit with me
 I wanna be seen in a hundred years
 As you see me now, so don’t hesitate
 Make my portrait made
 So paint me now

 You didn’t want to know, you didn’t want to see
 You threw it in the fire, you threw it in the fire
 And then you took my eyes, so I could never be
 The painter of your boy
 And then I go:
 King, for king, oh, king, bring the guillotine

 You didn’t want to know, you didn’t want to see
 You threw it in the fire, you threw it in the fire
 And then you took my eyes, so I could never be
 The painter of your boy
 And then I go:
 King, for king, oh, king, bring the guillotine
 Bring the guillotine
