Regarding Henry - Painting Pictures Lyrics

If I would paint a picture of myself
Would it be in rainbow colours, or different shades of grey
If I would paint a picture of myself
Would I be the brightest colours, If I would paint a picture of myself

If I would shoot a movie 'bout myself
Would I be the lucky fellow who - always gets the girl
If I would shoot a movie 'bout myself
Would I get to play the hero - If I would shoot a movie 'bout myself

Yeah if I was in that movie...
Would I be the guy the crowd roots for
Or just someone in the background
Never noticed - never known

And if I... ever wrote a song about myself
Would it be... kind of sad... oh, oooh, oooh, oh
Or perhaps... a melody as beautiful
As a grand... symphony

You can write a song about yourself
It can be a song so lovely - that the whole world wants to sing
And you could be a hero in your life
Cause in life we all have choices
Yeah, you can paint the picture that you like
