Lyrics
Sunday in the Park: A Sunday on La Grande Jatte
Its Sunday Somewhere
On the Island of La Grande Jatte
Monsieur Georges Seurat
Watches people on the shore
From ancient oak tree shade
View the top hat promenade
Faceless immobile gaze
Tin soldiers waiting for the war
His measured profile people, formal and profane
He paints and then he watches and then he paints again
Parasol in hand
A laughless bustle pose
Gentleman’s lapel rose
Float on the melody
Sailboats on the sea
Rowers wait for the call to stroke
The sleeveless mans tobacco smoke
Hangs in the air under the tree
A ten by seven framed record, two years of his life
Will the critics find meaning, in these points of light?
The Art Institute
Crowded parking lots
Disconnected dots
Shuffling patrons strain to view
The pointillistic hues
Fishing on the river Seine
Red tailed monkey on a chain
Frozen as the front porch lion statues
