Lyrics

[Verse 1] I think images are worth repeating, images repeated from a painting Images taken from a painting, from a photo worth re-seeing I love images worth repeating, project them upon the ceiling Multiply them with silk screening, see them with a different feeling Images, those images Images, those images [Verse 2] Some say images have no feeling, I think there's a deeper meaning Mechanical precision, or so it's seeming, instigates a cooler feeling I love multiplicity of screenings, things born anew display new meanings I think images are worth repeating and repeating and repeating Images, ah images Those images, images [Verse 3] I'm no urban idiot savant, spewing paint without any order I'm no sphinx, no mystery enigma, what I paint is very ordinary I don't think I'm old or modern, I don't think I think I'm thinking It doesn't matter what I'm thinking, it's the images are worth repeating And repeating Those images, images [Verse 4] If you're looking for a deeper meaning, I'm as deep as this high ceiling If you think technique is meaning, you might find me very simple You might think the images are boring, cars and cans and chairs and flowers And you might find me personally boring - hammer, sickle, Mao Tse Tong Mao Tse Tong Those images, those images Images [Outro] I think that it bears repeating, the images upon the ceiling I love images worth repeating and repeating and repeating Images, images Those images, those images
