Let It All Go Lyrics - Kill To Get Crimson - Mark Knopfler

When it's pop goes the weasel 

let go of the easel 

You don't want this rickety rackety life 

It's seat of the trousers 

It's all sink or swim, son 

I'd kill to get crimson on this palette knife 

And I'd steal in a minute 

I'm up to here in it 

You here behaving as though I'm a saint 

Get a job with a pension 

Don't ever mention 

you once had a craving for the brushes and paint

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

So go, forget it, let it all go 

let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Let it all go 

A hack writer judges 

my swipes and my smudges 

he doesn't like pictures with blotches and blots 

The drawing room tea set 

wants horses, sunsets - 

sweet nothings - the seaside with yachts 

Here's the end of the thirties 

no time for artistes 

over in Poland a right old to-do 

So go join the navy 

the air force or the army 

They'll all be enrolling young fellows like you 

Photos 

So go, forget it, let it all go 

let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Let it all go 

These are not my decisions 

flaming visions 

ringing expressions the clamouring voice 

It's volcanic desire 

the unquenchable fire 

It isn't a question, you haven't a choice. 

Anyway, now I'm old 

but if you won't be told 

if you've been created to answer the call 

all passion and lust 

is going to end in the dust 

but you'll hang on some government gallery wall 

You must go, forget it 

let it all go, let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Go, forget it 

let it all go, let it all go 

Go, forget it, let it all go 

Let it all go
