If she had it to do all over again
It would be a photograph
She would have a wide grin

But no, it was an artist with a longing loving style
So when the paint was dry all that remained was a faint, strange smile

She's ripe with broken dreams
Her lovers never stay
It looks like Mona Lisa is having a bad day
Mona Lisa's having a bad day

[sigh]

"The Book of History has many missing pages"
Murmurs the Madonna of the Middle Ages

But in between her cracks you can read between the lines
She'd love nothing better than to rob the Louvre blind

Baroque and complicated
Her lover's never stay
It looks like Mona Lisa is having a bad day
Mona Lisa is having a bad day
So please, just go away
Just go away
Just go away
