Imagine your brain as a canister filled with ink
Yeah, now think of your body as the pen where the ink resides
Fuse the two, kapow! What are you now?
You're the human magic marker, won't you please surprise myeyes?!
It's in your nature, you paint whatever picture you like
No matter what Ted Koppel says on channel 4 tonight
So modify this third rock from the sun
By painting myraids of pictures with the colours of one

I'm sick of painting it black and white
My pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
I'm sick of painting it black and white
My pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition

Picture the scene, where whatever you thought
Would, in the blink of an eye, manifest and become illustrated
You'd be sure man that every line drawn reflected a life that youloved
Not an existence that you hated
So, must we demonstrate that we can't get it straight?
We've painted a picture, now we're drowning in the paint
Let's figure out what the fuck it's about
Before the picture we painted chews us up and spits us out

I'm sick of painting it black and white
My pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
I'm sick of painting it black and white
My pen is dry, now I'm uptight
So sick of limiting myself to fit your definition
