The Painter
I'd like you to meet my last queen
Over there large as life
She's been hanging there for almost a week
My poor late wife
What do think of the colour of her skin
It has the bloom of the rose
You see she begged me to bring a certain painter in
And for that picture in her bedroom she would pose
Well after a while he was driving me mad
As you could well understand
Sitting in there, day after day
With my wife in the palm of his hand
It was -
Madam please do this and Madam please do that
You've never heard such display
But he didn't mind he was taking his time
It was me that had to pay
Oh Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods
You understand it's the light
And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they
Came back in the middle of the night
And I swear I'll take care of the painter, Oh the painter
Well as you can see it was hard for me
But something has to be done
She only has eyes for him and his lies, and as for me
Not a glance, not a single one
My orders were severe and she disappeared
It really was such a shame
And when they told me she was dead I broke down and said
It's that painter, it's him, he's to blame
With his: Madam please do this and Madam please do that
You've never heard such display
But he didn't mind he was taking his time
It was me that had to pay
Oh Madam I think we should take a walk in the woods
You understand it's the light
And did I mind, no, I was so kind when they
Came back in the middle of the night
And I hope it's the rope for the painter
When he's found, it's hellbound for the painter
I'll get that painter
El Pintor
Quisiera que conocieras a mi última reina
Allí, tan grande como la vida
Ha estado colgada allí casi una semana
Mi pobre difunta esposa
¿Qué opinas del color de su piel?
Tiene el tono de la rosa
Verás, me rogó que trajera a cierto pintor
Y para ese cuadro en su habitación posaría
Bueno, después de un tiempo me estaba volviendo loco
Como bien podrías entender
Sentado allí, día tras día
Con mi esposa en la palma de su mano
Era -
Señora, por favor haz esto y Señora, por favor haz aquello
Nunca has escuchado tal despliegue
Pero a él no le importaba, se tomaba su tiempo
Era yo quien tenía que pagar
Oh Señora, creo que deberíamos dar un paseo por el bosque
Entiendes que es la luz
¿Y me importaba? No, fui tan amable cuando ellos
Regresaron en medio de la noche
Y juro que me encargaré del pintor, Oh el pintor
Bueno, como puedes ver, fue difícil para mí
Pero algo tenía que hacerse
Ella solo tiene ojos para él y sus mentiras, y en cuanto a mí
Ni una mirada, ni una sola
Mis órdenes fueron severas y ella desapareció
Realmente fue una lástima
Y cuando me dijeron que estaba muerta, me derrumbé y dije
Es ese pintor, es él, él tiene la culpa
Con su: Señora, por favor haz esto y Señora, por favor haz aquello
Nunca has escuchado tal despliegue
Pero a él no le importaba, se tomaba su tiempo
Era yo quien tenía que pagar
Oh Señora, creo que deberíamos dar un paseo por el bosque
Entiendes que es la luz
¿Y me importaba? No, fui tan amable cuando ellos
Regresaron en medio de la noche
Y espero que sea la soga para el pintor
Cuando lo encuentren, será condenado al infierno el pintor
Atraparé a ese pintor
