I Can’t Draw
(Long Tall Glasses by Leo Sayer)
I was browsing through the site on a slow Friday night
Saw some Posts saying draw the Avatar above
And me bein' an Art Whore, well I, thought I’d just look inside
Well all that art was so sweet, that I figured I’d give it a try.
Yeah there was furries, there was mechas, every avatar
That my mind could conceive of, even some driving cars!
An’ then someone quoted my Post, told me to move along.
Said you can’t join in until you draw like Doragon
You know I can’t draw, you know I can’t draw
You know I can’t draw, you know I can’t draw
I can’t draw!
I am a writer of rhymes, a poet by name
And most of my stuff is silly and folks think that it’s lame
But if it’s all the same to you, then yes, I guess I’ll try my hand
If you knew how I wished I could draw, I know you’d understand.
Hmmm
Now wait a minute
Let me see now..
Maybe I can draw, maybe I can draw
I’ll bet I can draw, I’ll bet I can draw
I can draw!
I can draw!
Let me just open Paint
Pick some brushes
Look at me drawin’!
I made some circles, drew some lines and then I filled them in
Added just a bit of texture, then some highlights for the skin
You should’a seen me drawin’, but I must confess
By the time I was done, all I had was just a steaming mess
Damn it, I can’t. Damn it, I can’t draw.
I wish I could draw. I wish I could draw.
I can’t draw, though I wish I could
No matter how hard I try, it seems I just ain’t any good.
I was thinking of adding a bit of explanatory text to this entry, but I think the song (and the avvy art) pretty much says it all. sweatdrop
