Did you know van Gogh ate yellow paint

to get the happiness inside

And did you know everyone thought he was crazy

because how could eating yellow paint possibly

get the happiness inside.

 

Did you know van Gogh said

la tristesse durera toujours

And that that means the sadness will last forever

because how could eating yellow paint possibly

get the happiness inside.

 

I don't know how yellow paint

could possibly get the happiness inside

but if it could wouldn't van Gogh be right even if he were crazy

And maybe yellow paint really does get the happiness inside

because it poisons and kills you and that's what he wanted.

 

Did you know van Gogh was shot in the chest

some people say it was attempted suicide and others say not

And that when he was asked who shot him and why he said 

that no one shot him, he wanted suicide

And don't try to save him or he'll do it again.

 

Because how could yellow paint possibly

get the happiness inside?
