Stefan Andersson - Mona Lisa lyrics
[Stefan Andersson - Mona Lisa lyrics]
It's by our failures that we progress on
Down through history isn't it crazy
Some inventive mothers
Were glorified through luck
It was a failure out of an absent mind
Down by the Chateau Fizz that made it bubble
In his bottle of wine sweet Lord I'm hooked
Mona-Lisa was probably one
Just a slip of the pencil
And her glory had come
The smile she's wearing
It ain't nothing but a wrong
Just a slip of the pencil
And her song was sung
It was a failure made by a Chinese man
Down by the carry out
That made his powder-keg turn into fireworks
When he stubbed out his fag
It was a pleasure
Found by the one who popped
Popcorn to our world he did't mean to
But that's the way it goes
"Right time, right place"
Down through history isn't it crazy
Some inventive mothers
Were glorified through luck
It was a failure out of an absent mind
Down by the Chateau Fizz that made it bubble
In his bottle of wine sweet Lord I'm hooked
Mona-Lisa was probably one
Just a slip of the pencil
And her glory had come
The smile she's wearing
It ain't nothing but a wrong
Just a slip of the pencil
And her song was sung
It was a failure made by a Chinese man
Down by the carry out
That made his powder-keg turn into fireworks
When he stubbed out his fag
It was a pleasure
Found by the one who popped
Popcorn to our world he did't mean to
But that's the way it goes
"Right time, right place"
