That's all he sees, he paints a tree
The trouble with a classicist
he looks at the sky
He doesn't ask why
he just paints a sky
The trouble with an impressionist
he looks at a log
And he doesn't know who he is
standing, staring, at this log
And surrealist memories are
too amorphous and proud
While those downtown macho painters
are just alcoholic
The trouble with impressionist is
The trouble with impressionist is
The trouble with personalities
they're too wrapped up in style
It's too personal, they're in love
with their own guile
They're like illegal aliens
trying to make a buck
but they're thinking like a truck
The trouble with personalities is
The trouble with personalities is
I like the druggy downtown kids
who spray paint walls and trains
I like their lack of training
their primitive technique
I think sometimes it hurts you
when you stay too long in school
I think sometimes it hurts you
when you're afraid to be called a fool
The trouble with classicists is
The trouble with classicists is
STARLIGH Starlight open wide
starlight open up you door
This is New York calling
with movies from the street
Movies with real people
what you get is what you see
Starlight open wide
Andy's Cecil B. DeMille
Come on L.A. give us a call
We've got superstars who talk
they'll do anything at all
Ingrid, Viva, Little Joe,
Baby Jane, and Eddie S
But you better call us soon
before we talk ourselves to death
Starlight open wide
everybody is a star
Split screen 8-hour movies
We've got color, we've got sound
Won't you recognize us
we're everything you hate
Andy loves old Hollywood movies
he'll scare you hypocrites to death
You know that shooting up's for real
That person who's screaming
that's the way he really feels
