Well we artistic types are so misunderstood Everyone's a critic, they don't know when something's good Just let us have our space and freedom to create And when the work is finished, we'll tell you if it's great My painter friend is Stephen, I'm screwing his wife Mia No, it doesn't bother him, in fact it's his idea You common people try to pa** it off as sick behavior But it's how he gets inspired, I'm doing him a favor Artists want to share their gift, but it's often that they can't Thank God that Stephen finally got that NEA grant Chorus: Cause Stephen's exhibition is a masterpiece to see It's a series done in oil of his wife in bed with me In really wild positions, all throughout his home We cluttered every room with empty tubes of paint and foam He's done good work before, but this is closer to his heart
I'm glad that I could help out my friend Stephen with his art Now Stephen was a prodigy, so growing up was odd Like Maplethorpe multiplied by Marquis De Sade When he discovered p**no he was instantly consumed Then he fell in love with Mia and his art began to bloom Congress tried to pull his funding cause his approach is raw Well, technically in many states it is against the law You know the one of Mia with a gerbil in her hand? It's called "The Veterinarian", it goes for thirty grand You may find that insulting, but the cultural elite Line up to throw their platitudes and money at his feet Chorus And all the s** and violence is a brilliant metaphor I'm not really raping Mia on the living room floor Chorus
