When You Go Out With Artists Lyrics - God Shuffled His Feet - Crash Test Dummies

When I go out with artists 

They talk about language and the cubists and the dadaists 

And I try to catch their meanings 

And keep up with all the martinis 

I don't know which should be my favorite paintings 

If I could see, if I could see, if I could 

See all the symbols, unlock what they mean 

Maybe I could, maybe I could, maybe I 

Could meet the artists, and get to know them personally 

If I were David Byrne 

I'd go to galleries and not be too concerned 

Well I would have a cup of coffee 

And I'd find my surroundings quite amusing and 

People would ask me which were my favorite paintings 

What if the artists ran the TV? 

All the ads would be for fine scotch whiskey: 

Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, the whole single malt family
