Lyrics Paint a Picture of Yourself - Harry Chapin
Well
I
hear
you
are
a
painter
now
Though
you′re
almost
halfway
through
You
pulled
a
pallet
knife,
you
cut
away
a
wife
And
you
started
something
new
But
it
was
not
the
strife
of
married
life
That
ordained
what
you
would
do
A
quick
look
back
through
your
history
Shows
the
same
things
goading
you
It's
just
like
you
to
try
painting
Because
you′re
color
blind
Each
time
you
conquer
something
That's
the
time
you
change
you're
mind
And
now
your
new
preoccupations
Give
you
your
handicap
to
start
Yes
you′re
happiest
when
you′re
chasing
clouds
With
a
halfway
broken
heart
Paint
a
picture
of
yourself
Let
the
images
flash
past
Don't
weep
on
watercolors
Michael
make
this
moment
last
Paint
the
kid
with
restless
eyes
Yeah
the
way
you
looked
back
then
′Cause
the
man
keeps
getting
frightened
When
that
boy's
not
born
again
I
remember
how
you
led
us
Back
when
we
all
were
kids
And
the
fact
that
you
were
older
Made
us
copy
what
you
did
And
that
day
you
bought
that
cheap
guitar
We
all
fell
into
line
We
got
hooked
on
music
But
you
drifted
off
in
time
So
I
can
see
you
at
your
easel
Splay
legged
there
you
stand
And
your
eyes
are
darting
back
and
forth
Brush
flashing
in
your
hand
Yeah
you′re
reaching
always
for
that
dream
You
need
to
make
you
real
Leaning
in
a
heavy
wind
That
no
one
else
can
feel
Paint
a
picture
of
yourself
Let
the
images
flash
past
Don't
weep
on
watercolors
Michael
make
this
moment
last
Paint
the
kid
with
restless
eyes
Yeah
the
way
you
looked
back
then
′Cause
the
man
keeps
getting
frightened
When
that
boy's
not
born
again,
again
