Like Picasso said in 1910   ?I'm gonna paint me a mandolin?   Could be cubes, it could be curves   I like to mix the paint with nerve   I'm load my brush and fire away   Paint me a hole in the light of day      Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field   You got to play it just the way you feel   Come on boys, play it again   Play it on Picasso's mandolin      Well, it's colorin' books and drinkin' wines   It?s hard to stay between the lines   Now there ain?t no rule if you don't break it   Ain?t no chance if you don't take it   Said the damndest thing he'd ever heard   Was tryin' to learn to sing from a mockingbird      Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field   You got to play it just the way you feel   Come on boys, play it again   Play it on Picasso's mandolin      Like Picasso said before he died   ?There?s one more paintin' I'd like to try?   Well, the doctor held his breath   And then Picasso nailed a mandolin   He?s born in Spain and died in France   He was not scared of baggy pants      Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field   You got to play it just the way you feel   Come on boys, play it again   Play it on Picasso's mandolin      Play it straight or play it from left field   You got to play it just the way you feel   Come on boys, play it again   Play it on Picasso's mandolin
