[Intro] Gala sees him She sees something in him And soon the world sees it too [Verse] He was the reincarnation of his dead brother His mother was replaced by her sister If identity is so unstable Then we are nothing but Manufactured characters So he started to paint He started to create He started to dress like a dandy Even if it's the same suit every day And soon things started to change [Pre-Chorus] Gala sees him She sees something in him (She sees him like his paintings) And soon the world sees it too [Chorus] Avida Dollars It's the name, not the works It's the brand, not the words Not what was printed in the newspaper But blank papers with his signature Artists don't need gatekeepers And they don't need art movements either As long as you're spectacular..... [Verse] He was excommunicated by André Breton He was labelled a sellout, a putrid pablum If purity is so unreliable Then art is nothing but A printing machine with colors So he started to print He started to make ads He started to dress crazy Even if it's a different suit every day And soon things started to change [Pre-Chorus] Gala sees him She sees something in him (She sees him like his paintings) And soon the world sees it too [Chorus] Avida Dollars It's the name, not the works It's the brand, not the words Not what was printed in the newspaper But blank papers with his signature Artists don't need gatekeepers And they don't need art movements either As long as you're spectacular..... [Bridge] He is everywhere He is in everything His paintings are exclusive negotiations His name is more important Than the establishment's praise But what happens after you've won? [Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Gala sees him She sees something in him (She sees him like his paintings) And soon the world sees it too [Chorus] Avida Dollars It's the name, not the works It's the brand, not the words Not what was printed in the newspaper But blank papers with his signature Artists don't need gatekeepers And they don't need art movements either As long as you're spectacular..... [Chorus] Avida Dollars It's the name, not the works It's the brand, not the words Not what was printed in the newspaper But blank papers with his signature Artists don't need gatekeepers And they don't need art movements either As long as you're spectacular..... [Outro] Every morning upon awakening, I experience a supreme pleasure: that of being Salvador Dalí
