Painting Pictures

Everybody wants a little sunshine

Nobody wants to get caught in the rain

Everybody wants to feel happy sometimes

Nobody wants to feel too much pain

This world keeps turning at a faster pace

While I'm sitting here watching this turtle race

For me you know I just haven't a clue

But I'll tell you good people what I'm gonna do

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

Yes I'm painting pictures

I'm painting pictures of a better world

That I want to see

I follow my intuitions

My music and my superstitions

They guide my ambition

With a little faith, love, and tradition

So pardon my hesitation

But I need a little motivation

So here's a little inspiration

To enhance your situation

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

Yes I'm painting pictures

I'm painting pictures of a better world

That I want to see

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

Yes I'm painting pictures

I'm painting pictures of a better world

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

Painting pictures (painting pictures)

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

I'm painting pictures (painting pictures)

I'm painting pictures of a better world

For you and me
