Lyrics Putting It Together

Look, I've spent a lot of time working on this
I believe in it
Well, wha- how do how can you
Well wh- why I mean
What is commercial, really
Be nice, girl
You have to pay a price, girl
They like to give advice, girl
Don't think about it twice, girl
It's time to get to work
I disagree, why don't you wait until you hear it
Art isn't easy even when you're hot
Advancing art is easy financing it is not
A vision's just a vision if it's only in your head
If no one gets to hear it it's as good as dead
It has to come to life
Bit by bit putting it together
Piece by piece only way to make a work of art
Every moment makes a contribution
Every little detail plays a part
Having just a vision's no solution
Everything depends on execution
Putting it together that's what counts
Ounce by ounce putting it together
Small amounts, adding up to make a work of art
First of all you need a good foundation
Otherwise, it's risky from the start
Takes a little cocktail conversation
But without the proper preparation
Having just a vision's no solution
Everything depends on execution
The art of making art is putting it together bit by bit
Link by link, making the connections, yes we do
Drink by drink, taking every comment as it comes
Learning how to play the politician
Like you play piano bass, and drums
Otherwise, you'll find your composition
Isn't gonna get much exhibition
Art isn't easy
Every minor detail is a major decision
Have to keep things in scale
Have to hold to your vision
What's a little cocktail conversation
If it gets the funds for your foundation
Every time I start to feel defensive
I remember vinyl is expensive
Maybe one
Dot by dot building up the image
Shot by shot, keeping at a distance doesn't pay
Still, if you remember your objective
Not give all your privacy away
A little bit of hype can be effective as long as you can keep it in perspective
Even when you get some recognition
Everything you do you still audition
Art isn't easy
Overnight you're a trend
You're the right combination
Then the trend's at an end
You're suddenly last year's sensation
All they ever want is repetition
All they really like is what they know
Gotta keep a link with your tradition
Gotta learn to trust your intuition
While you re-establish your position
So that you can be on exhibit
So that your work can be on exhibition
Be new, girl
They tell you 'till they're blue, girl
You're new, or else you're through, girl
And even if it's true, girl
You do what you can do
Bit by bit putting it together
Piece by piece, working on the vision night and day
All it takes is time and perseverance with a little luck along the way
Putting in a personal appearance
Gathering supporters and adherents
Mapping out the songs but in addition
Harmonizing each negotiation
Balancing the part that's all musicians with the part that's strictly presentation
Balancing the money with the mission 'till you have the perfect orchestration
Even if you do have the suspicion that it's taking all your concentration
The art of making art is putting it together bit by bit
Beat by beat part by part
Sheet by sheet chart by chart
Track by track reel by reel
Stack by stack
Meal by meal deal by deal
Shpiel by shpiel
And that is the state of the art
