G               D           C       G 
You're my picture by Picasso 
             D         C          G 
Lighting up our scullerys 
                D                  C           G 
With your pans and pots and hot-plates 
Am                            D    
You'd brighten up any gallery.  

G           D         C         G         
I could paint a different picture  
           D            C            G 
Leafy lanes and flower scenes 
           D              C            G 
But amid your cooking mixture 
Am                                                     D 
You still have ingredients that make you shine 
Am                                                                D 
And when you take your apron off I know you're mine. 

You're my photogenic model 
From the glossy magazine 
In among your kitchen structure 
Soapy water, washing machine. 

I could take a different picture 
Rolling hills and flowing gowns 
But amid the foaming texture 
Dirty linen isn't all that starts to shine 
In rubber gloves and faded jeans you still look fine.
