DAVID BOWIE

- Pablo Picasso Lyrics

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his finger nails

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his finger nails

Well some people try to pick up girls
They get called assholes
This never happened to Pablo Picasso

The girls would turn the colour of a juicy avocado
When he would drive down their street in his El Dorado

He could walk down your street
Girls could not resist his stare
So Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole
Not like you
Wow!

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his finger nails

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his finger nails

He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole

Well the girls would turn the colour of a juicy avocado
When he would drive down their street in his El Dorado

Well he was only 5'3"
But girls could not resist his stare
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole
Not in New York
Wow!

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his finger nails

Swinging on the back porch
Jumping off a big log
Pablo's feeling better now
Hanging by his picture nails

What is the meaning behind Pablo Picasso lyrics?


When we think about the meaning behind each verse, David Bowie's 'Pablo Picasso' song paints a picture of the timeless painter as a person with an irresistible charm and an appealing draw, quite the opposite of those who find it difficult to make social contacts. The singer's story casts Pablo Picasso as the very man who never fails to attract and win everyone's admiration, and thus he is the very man whose existence may arouse jealousy in others due to his very magnetic quality. The lyrics of Pablo Picasso speak mainly about topics like joy, social commentary, love, adventure and nature. In the meantime, the song expresses the idea of the necessity of having self-confidence and charm, social perception and attraction and desirability. The lyrics have some profanity and cover-ups that are not appropriate for little kids, for instance, the word 'asshole' used in a non-explicit context. Nevertheless, the strong themes of violence, drug use or sexual content are completely absent thus rendering the song safe for a PG rating.
