Dire Straits - In The Gallery Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Harry made a bareback rider proud and free upon a horse
  • And a fine coalminer for the ncb that was
  • A fallen angel and jesus on the cross
  • A skating ballerina you should have seen her do the skaters waltz
  • Some people have got to paint and draw
  • Harry had to work iin clay and stone
  • Like the waves coming to the shore
  • It was in his blood and in his bones
  • Ignored by all the trendy boys in london and in leeds
  • He might as well have been making toys or strings of beads
  • He could not be in the gallery
  • And then you get an artist says he doesnt want to paint at all
  • He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall
  • The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes
  • While the dealers they get together
  • And they decide who gets the breaks
  • And whos going to be in the gallery
  • No lies he wouldnt compromise
  • No junk no bits of string
  • And all the lies we subsidise
  • That just dont mean a thing
  • Ive got to say he passed away in obscurity
  • And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree
  • So hes going to be in the gallery
