Work Of Art
Måns Zelmerlöw Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's blonde as can be
And that works for me
Eyes that flash like streetlights

Cash, big screen TV
She's perfectly free
Dresses in DKNY
Close the door lay down your attitude
Make-up rocks,
But freedom knocks

Let me in,
I'll show you gratitude
There is no need to pretend

She's another work of art
And she knows it, oh how she shows it
Just another work of art Da Vinci, yeah
All the girls behind, every man in line,
Working wonders with her tail-lights
She's another work of art and she likes me, oh yeah

Walks like she doesn't care,
A body to fear
Worshiped by pale Star Trek-nerds

Talks with words soft as air
Men stop and stare
Thinking "this is so unfair"

Close the door lay down your attitude
When we're alone, you're off your throne
Let me in I'll show you gratitude
Lay all your issues aside

She's another work of art
And she knows it, oh how she shows it
Just another work of art Da Vinci, yeah
All the girls behind, every man in line,
Working wonders with her tail-lights
She's another work of art and she likes me, oh yeah

She's Mona Lisa always smiling
She's another angel in the Sistine Chapel
And she's mine, yeah

And she's mine
She likes
Me, me, me!
She likes... oooh

She likes me
She's another work of art
(She likes me)
And she knows it, oh how she shows it
(She likes! )
She's another work of art Da Vinci, yeah
All the girls behind,
(All the girls behind! )
Every man in line,
(Every man in line)
Working wonders with her tail-lights
She's another work of art and she likes me,
She likes me, yeah




She likes me
She likes me!
