Here was where the money laid, classic art has had it’s day

Painter man, painter man, who wanna be a painter man?

3. Did ad- verts for T.V., household shops and brands of tea
Labels all a- round the cans, who wanna be a painter man?
Chorus: Painter man, painter man, who wanna be a painter man ?
Painter man, painter man, who wanna be a painter man?
La la la, la la la, la la la la, la la la
Painter man, painter man, who wanna be a painter man?
