If she had it to do
All over again
It would be a photograph
She would have a wide grin
But no, it was an artist
With a longing, loving style
So when the paint was dry
All that remained was a
Faint strange smile
She's ripe with broken dreams
Her lovers never stay
It looks like Mona Lisa
Is having a bad day
Mona Lisa is having a bad day
"The Book Of History
Has many missing pages"
Murmurs the Madonna
Of the Middle Ages
But in between her cracks
You can read between the lines
She'd love nothing better than
To rob the Louvre blind
Baroque and complicated
Her lovers never stay
It looks like Mona Lisa
Is having a bad day
Mona Lisa is having a bad day
So please, just go away
Just go away, just go away
