Pavement Artist

Sittin' on a pavement, I'm just scratchin' up a livin'
 I'm just a pavement artist but no money I've been given
 Can't do no better 'cause I haven't got a brain
 Some people even say that I'm a little bit insane
 I'm an artist and I paint scenes of people who are have beens
 And I see what they used to be
 Before they met me
 People always tell me that my life is lived in sin
 My face is pretty dirty and my breath it stinks of gin
 But I'm quite content at the way that I've been livin'
 As long as there is paint around my work just keeps me livin'
 I'm an artist and I paint scenes of people who are have beens
 And I see what they used to be
 Before they met me
 Here I am again talking to the road
 Gotta keep on moving before I get busted
 I started off at college but I couldn't pay my way
 And found that my money didn't last from day to day
 So packing up my bags I just had to hit the road
 And try and find a friend who could help me take the load
 I'm an artist and I paint scenes of people who are have beens
 And I see what they used to be
 Before they met me
