Oslo is a city In the country of Norway There’s quite a lot to do there To occupy your day There’s a Viking museum that’s awesome There are sculpture parks – they’re free You can walk on the roof of the opera house But those aren’t where I’ll be If we’re ever both in Oslo And you have the urge to meet You can almost always find me In the Nasjonal Museet I can be even more specific Cuz one spot there’s the best I’ll be sitting in room #20 Where I was first impressed By Edvard Munch’s Madonna Acted like a tractor beam Pulling me straight toward it Though I’d come to see The Scream It has sex and death And faith and love And everything in between Yeah, Edvard Munch’s Madonna Is even better than The Scream Now The Scream is great for sure And you should look at that one, too But it’s not the best thing he ever did It’s not even number two It maybe comes in fifth Because even more sublime Are Edvard Munch’s Madonnas Which he painted four separate times One arm stretched behind her head The other behind her back She has a bright red halo Or that might just be a hat She looks like she’s ecstatic She looks like she’s asleep She looks like looking at her Is supposed to make you weep Edvard Munch’s Madonna Acts just like a tractor beam Pulling you straight toward it Though you’d come to see The Scream It has sex and death And faith and love And everything in between Yeah, Edvard Munch’s Madonna Is even better than The Scream Looking at her does something Difficult to describe It releases all these feelings You try to keep inside She has a little belly But it’s sexy all the same Her nipples are otherworldly Yeah, I know that that sounds lame I just mean when he painted her nipple Well, he captured something more It has all of life inside it That right nipple is like a door To a universe of meaning An infinity of sex A world where your desires Have no negative effects Edvard Munch’s Madonna Acts just like a tractor beam Pulling you straight toward it Though you’d come to see The Scream It has sex and death And faith and love And everything in between Yeah, Edvard Munch’s Madonna Is even better than The Scream She has no legs that we can see But it’s clear that they’ve been spread She had to birth a saviour So we could lounge in bed With Edvard Munch’s Madonna More beautiful than God Except that God’s inside her The whole thing’s very odd

about

"Vincent Van Gogh" is a Jonathan Richman cover the band recorded for a Record Store Day tribute album that never came out (but might, one day). "Edvard Munch's Madonna" was written by the band and recorded the same day.
