[Spoken Intro: Bertie McIntosh]
Piss off!
I'm trying to work here
Hmm...
Maybe we need a bit more... shadow in the clouds. A bit more blue on the left hand side
I said... piss off

[Verse 1: Kate Bush]
Watching the painter painting
And all the time, the light is changing
And he keeps painting

[Verse 2: Kate Bush]
That bit there
It was an accident
But he's so pleased
Its the best mistake he could make
And its my favorite piece, it's just great

[Verse 3: Kate Bush]
The flick of a wrist twisting down to the hips
So the lovers begin
With a kiss in a tryst
It's just a smudge
But what it becomes in his hands

[Bridge: All, Kate Bush, Chorus]
Curving and sweeping
Rising and reaching
I could feel what he was feeling
Watching the painter painting
And lines like these have got to be
An architect's dream

[Verse 4: Kate Bush, Chorus]
It's always the same
Whenever he works on a pavement
Watching the painter painting
It starts to rain
And all the time the light is changing

Kate Bush is an art pop singer and songwriter from Bexleyheath, a suburb of London, England. Her debut single “Wuthering Heights” hit number one on the UK charts in 1978, winning her a Brit award for best female performance, and propelling her into fame.

She went on to write, record and produce ten studio albums including her UK bestselling fifth album, Hounds of Love in 1985.

She is known for her experimental musical style and live performances, but has only toured twice – first in 1979 then 35 years later in 2014 – both of which have received releases in the form of either an EP, LP and/or video.
