M.I.A. - Masterpiece
If you were the Mona Lisa, you’d be hanging in the Louvre
Everyone would come to see you, you’d be impossible to move
It seems to me is what you are, a rare and priceless work of art
Stay behind your velvet rope, but I will not renounce all hope
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible
From the moment I first saw you, all the darkness turned to light
An impressionistic painting, tiny particles of light
It seems to me is what you’re like the “look but please don’t touch me” type
And honestly it can’t be fun, to always be the chosen one And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible, nothing’s indestructible
Nothing’s indestructible, nothing’s indestructible
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with a masterpiece
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible, 'cause after all, nothing’s indestructible
Everyone would come to see you, you’d be impossible to move
It seems to me is what you are, a rare and priceless work of art
Stay behind your velvet rope, but I will not renounce all hope
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible
From the moment I first saw you, all the darkness turned to light
An impressionistic painting, tiny particles of light
It seems to me is what you’re like the “look but please don’t touch me” type
And honestly it can’t be fun, to always be the chosen one And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible, nothing’s indestructible
Nothing’s indestructible, nothing’s indestructible
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with a masterpiece
And I’m right by your side, like a thief in the night, I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can’t tell you why, it hurts so much, to be in love with the masterpiece
'Cause after all, nothing’s indestructible, 'cause after all, nothing’s indestructible
