lyrics

Action-painting
it is more then just a mode
It's dynamic
and not consciously controlled
Or influenced
by the artist
The picture is not planned in advance
And Pollock put the canvas
on the floor
Then he drips all the colours
here on
Like a wizard he is dancing around
full of paint from head to toe
He is merged with the ground
he pours out of of cans
He splashes with the brush
He smears with his hands
He's in a rush
A cigarette in the corner of his mouth

Jack the dripper
Jack the dripper
Jack the dripper
Jack.....
