No One Was Like Vermeer - Jonathan Richman

No One Was Like Vermeer - Jonathan Richman
Back in the days of old Rembrandt
Back in the time of Jan Steen
All of them giants of shadow and light
But no one was like Vermeer
Some paintings smell of joy and sweat
Some paintings plain look so fine
And some paintings are sad and passionate
But Vermeer sends a chill up your spine
Yeah Vermeer sends a chill up your spine
Vermeer was eerie
Vermeer was strange
He had his own color range
As if born in a never age
Like may be oh a hundred or so years ago
What's this a ghost in the gallery
Great Scot the Martians are here
The strange of his paintings
Unlike the others
No one was like Vermeer
Vermeer was eerie
Vermeer was We are
He had on we are doing things
With paintings from another eerie
Another eerie
