The Art of Friendship - Beans On Toast

[00:00.15]The Art of Friendship - Beans On Toast
[00:14.48]My all time favorite artist is a guy called Laro Verz
[00:17.84]A master of the scribble and the doodle universe
[00:21.38]His work is very simple but complex all the same
[00:24.65]He can draw somethin' in seconds
[00:26.37]And it looks like it took days
[00:28.35]He has a way with colors
[00:29.9]That's timeless and wise and looking at his work makes
[00:33.48]Me feel happy I'm alive
[00:35.2]I know that that sounds cheesy
[00:36.83]But I promise that it's true
[00:38.65]And anyways isn't that what art's
[00:40.83]Supposed to do
[00:42.2]You probably think I'm biased
[00:43.86]'Cause I know Loro Verz we met many years ago when
[00:47.58]We were both at work
[00:49.29]Handin' out flyers for a little indie club
[00:52.4]I'm not sure when exactly maybe 2001
[00:56.08]Well we became friends quickly and then
[00:58.4]Loro went home because he was Brazillian
[01:00.98]And lived in San Palo
[01:04.26]Picture me a chicken picture her a bumblebee
[01:07.52]He drew a heart for both of us
[01:09.57]And give it to me for free
[01:11.07]The art is in the friendship
[01:12.74]The friendship in the art
[01:14.2]Create a reason to create if nothin' it's a start
[01:20.46]Well Loro and I we stayed in touch while
[01:22.56]Life streched out his canvas and I watched
[01:24.64]From afar at his paintings gettin'
[01:26.74]Noticed from the streets of San Palo to the gallary
[01:29.76]Walls he rose up through
[01:31.87]The art world he was unstobbable
[01:34.4]He'd sometimes send me pictures
[01:35.75]Or swing by and paint a pub
[01:37.619995]He drew the two tattoos for my right arm
[01:40.979996]We may have lived on other sides of the globe
[01:44.53]But we always stayed in touch that's
[01:46.25]The art of friendship folks
[01:48.09]Picture me a chicken picture her a bumblebee
[01:51.41]He drew a heart for both of us
[01:53.08]And give it to me for free
[01:54.83]The art is in the friendship
[01:56.520004]The friendship in the art
[01:58.009995]Create a reason to create
[01:59.56]If nothin' it's a start
[02:04.48]My all time favorite person is a girl named Lizzy Bee
[02:07.55]My wife my friend my lover
[02:09.15]She's everything I need
[02:11.08]And this year on her birthday
[02:12.69]She's gonna be turning 30
[02:14.56]So I was lookin' out for
[02:16.2]A very special something
[02:18.06]I didn't want to spend a fortune
[02:19.9]'Cause that's not what she'd like she'd rather
[02:21.6]Me to be creative than to spend a bunch of cash
[02:24.94]So I called up an old friend and
[02:26.98]Asked for a favor and Loro Verz said that
[02:30.09]He'd paint her a picture
[02:32.11]Picture me a chicken picture her a bumblebee
[02:35.4]He drew a heart for both of us
[02:37.03]And give it to me for free
[02:38.81]The art is in the friendship the friendship in the art
[02:42.26]Create a reason to create if nothin' it's a start
[02:45.95]So now we have a heart hangin' over our bed
[02:49.02]It stands for love it stands for art
[02:51.25]It stands for friendship
[02:52.73]It didn't cost a penny I swapped it for this song
[02:56.09]So make sure you go and check out Loro's work
