Art & Photography Playlist #7 David Bowie: Andy Warhol

Songs about Art and Photography: a playlist. #7 David Bowie: Andy Warhol  (click to play).
Andy Warhol, Self-Portrait, 1964
(This is Andy Warhol and it's take one, take one)
It's, it's Warhol actually
(What did I say?)
Hole, it's hole as in holes
(Andy Warhol)
What?, Andy War hol, Andy War hol
Like hole
He
Ha
Are you ready?
(Yeah)
Ha ha ha ha ha ha

Like to take a cement fix
Be a standing cinema
Dress my friends up just for show
See them as they really are
Put a peephole in my brain
Two New Pence to have a go
I'd like to be a gallery
Put you all inside my show

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Andy walking, Andy tired
Andy take a little snooze
Tie him up when he's fast asleep
Send him on a pleasant cruise (hm hm hm)
When he wakes up on the sea
He sure to think of me and you
He'll think about paint and he'll think about glue
What a jolly boring thing to do

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

 "Andy Warhol" by David Bowie, from David Bowie: Hunky Dory, 1971.
