Picasso (1990s Studio Version)

[David Carradine, Barely audible background singer]

Picasso was a little clown
He lived in a house way out on the outskirts of town
With his chickens and his goats
And he painted pictures all day long
And that's got nothin' to do with the song
'Cause all I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you

Beethoven was just as deaf as a board
But he sang his song all day long
He heard it with his inner ear
And everybody far and near that heard the sound
Thought it was just about the best around
And he was just as deaf as a board
Sometimes it's hard but there's always a way
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you

If I made you cry, honey, all that I can do is try
To do bettеr by you day by day
To do better by you any way that I can
All I mean to say is I lovе you
All I mean to say is I love you

Milton the poet was blind
But he wrote it all down
Like he saw it in the eye of his mind
And he got it all in rhyme
He was just as blind as a bat
But somehow he knew just where it was at
And his poem stood the test of time
Sometimes it's hard, but there's always a way
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you

Leonardo Da Vinci was just as queer as a three-dollar bill
But he painted his paintings with such style
That all around the world people still get a thrill
Watchin' his old Mona Lisa smile
Sometimes it's hard, I know Sometimes it's hard, I know
But there's always a way to go
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you

If I done you wrong, honey, I'll try
To make it up to you as we go along
I'll try to make it up to you day by day
I'll try to make it up to you any way that I can
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love, love, love
All I mean to say is I love, love, love
That's all I mean to say
All I mean to say
(All I mean to say)
(I love you, baby)

[Instrumental]

If I made you cry, honey, all that I can do is try
To do better by you day by day
To do better by you any way that I can
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you
All I mean to say is I love you
(All I mean to say is I love you)

(I love you, baby)
