Pablo Picasso Lyrics

Cover art for Pablo Picasso lyrics by Citizen Cope

I actually feel the song is about environmentalist terrorism... I know that sounds like a stretch, but picasso was never a sculptor and no statue has ever been forty feet high, other than the statue of liberty. He's from brooklyn and there's been a history of destroying trees there. But specifically when he says that she's all in the papers, it really feels like he's talking about a tree. But hey he could be talking about a billboard but those get taken down all the time so that doesn't seem significant enough... So yeah, trees, environmetalism. you get the point.

Come on man, Picasso DID design sculptures. i visited one in Chicago last year, one of his most famous, and it is 50 feet tall. Hundreds, probably thousands of people walk past this every day. And, supposedly, this sculpture was inspired by a woman who Picasso found beautiful enough to produce 40 different works based on her.
