Art War Lyrics - Havin A Rave Up: Live In Los Angeles 1978 - The Knack

no i don't give a shit about warhol 

and oldenberg's really gone soft in the brain 

now dali just wants to be cornholed 

with one of those crutches he sold to man ray 

yes calder was hung up on mobiles 

and rauchenberg gives a particular pain 

now art's just another distraction 

like tv commercials that won't go away 

bourgeois what's the deal 

don't want no dada 

no don't try to hand me no fantasy 

it's for surreal 

when your taste is confined to their palates 

and their pictures are easily framed on your walls 

did you ever consider the malice aforethought 

contained in that trivial parcel of art 

van gogh does a flip in his casket 

rafaels and da vincis are moved down the hall 

to make way for neimans and no ones 

like rock and roll portraiture by guy pellaert 

tell me what good is color on canvas 

just who will it feed tell me who will it save 

and do they expect us to stand this barrage 

of collage and potage and potage st. germaine 

the people who work for a living 

don't need to ask questions from cradle to grave 

they don't need di carlo to tell them 

what's good and what's bad and what's really insane
