about

Initially conceived as an art project by mikewindy to make bumper stickers that said " I'd rather be Titian" instead of "I'd rather be Fishin' "
Cowboy Conceptual noticed it languishing in one of mikewindy's sketch books and made it into a song. Bumper sticker will come accompany Semi-Pro Records 7"

lyrics

I'd rather be Titian
I've got the bumper sticker on my car
Painting portraits of nobles
Instead of wondering where you are

I'd rather be Titian
Searching for the perfect hue
Instead of wondering around this town with a hole in my heart
That you could drive a food truck right through

I'd rather be Titian
Instead of Fishin' around for clues
How you stole all the color from my life
But you left behind all of these blues

I'd rather be Titian
Always confident, never confused
Instead my hearts as empty as a canvas
That Robert Ryman never used

I'd rather be Titian
That bumper sticker is peeling off of my car
I'd rather be painting portraits of nobles
Instead of wondering where you are
I'd rather be painting pictures of rich folks
Instead of wondering where you are
