Lyrics
0:23I forgotten how often we saw Magritte
0:32He's been much on my mind these days
0:36Often we saw Magritte
0:40Inside a canvas of blue
0:46Saturated with beauty
0:51In a web of glass
0:56Pinned to the edges of vision
1:17There's a car horn in the street outside
1:25And a museum with it's windows open
1:30Often we saw Magritte
1:34Running with the legends of conspicuous men
1:39And how often we forgot Magritte
1:43How we remembered him then
1:49And worshipped at his feet
1:53Pinned to the edges of vision
2:24Somebody's coming that hates us
2:33Better watch the art
2:40Upstairs there's a canvas stretched
2:46For umbrellas and bowler hats
2:50Everybody knows Rene did that
3:00Pinned to the edges of vision
3:02Often we saw Magritte
3:04Everybody knows everybody knows Rene did that
3:11Often we saw Magritte
3:13Everybody knows Rene did that
3:18Pinned to the edges of vision
3:20Often we saw Magritte
3:22Everybody knows everybody knows Rene did that
3:29Often we saw Magritte
I forgotten how often we saw Magritte He's been much on my mind these days Often we saw Magritte Inside a canvas of blue Saturated with beauty In a web of glass Pinned to the edges of vision There's a car horn in the street outside And a museum with it's windows open Often we saw Magritte Running with the legends of conspicuous men And how often we forgot Magritte How we remembered him then And worshipped at his feet Pinned to the edges of vision Somebody's coming that hates us Better watch the art Upstairs there's a canvas stretched For umbrellas and bowler hats Everybody knows Rene did that Pinned to the edges of vision Often we saw Magritte Everybody knows everybody knows Rene did that Often we saw Magritte Everybody knows Rene did that Pinned to the edges of vision Often we saw Magritte Everybody knows everybody knows Rene did that Often we saw Magritte
