[00:00:00] These portraits

[00:00:02] They trap me in amber

[00:00:05] They will not age

[00:00:07] They will live forever

[00:00:10] My Dali dear

[00:00:12] That mad surrealist

[00:00:14] He made me beautiful

[00:00:16] Forever Beautiful

[00:00:19] My eyes like gems

[00:00:20] Notice please each tiny lash

[00:00:23] Would you believe he

[00:00:24] Painted with his own mustache

[00:00:31] Raoul Dufy

[00:00:33] A brilliant colorist

[00:00:36] He made me beautiful

[00:00:38] Forever Beautiful

[00:00:40] A few deft strokes

[00:00:42] Poppy red and iris blue

[00:00:44] In my small way

[00:00:45] I do know something of this too

[00:00:51] Made women glorious

[00:00:54] Made women glamorous

[00:00:56] Used all my art

[00:00:57] To halt the march of time

[00:01:00] I slowed it down a bit

[00:01:02] There is no stopping it

[00:01:05] But in a painting

[00:01:06] It is always your prime

[00:01:10] Right

[00:01:12] Tamara de Lempicka

[00:01:14] She was bisexual

[00:01:16] You see her love for me

[00:01:18] But it's sub textual

[00:01:21] My lifelong fight

[00:01:22] Is to keep my figure trim

[00:01:25] But now I eat

[00:01:26] 'Cause Giacometti keeps me slim

[00:01:31] Seven guest rooms

[00:01:32] When was the last time

[00:01:33] She even had a visitor

[00:01:34] She's old and scared

[00:01:36] Wouldn't you be

[00:01:37] Good go then you money men

[00:01:41] I read your beady eyes

[00:01:44] 'Vain old lady all alone

[00:01:48] In bed until she dies'

[00:01:51] I admit

[00:01:53] I am a little bit afraid to meet death

[00:01:59] But with brilliant eye for art

[00:02:03] When I depart

[00:02:05] I'll cheat death

[00:02:08] With my Picasso

[00:02:10] His early cubist years

[00:02:12] I posed no clothes with him

[00:02:14] Thank God who knows with him

[00:02:16] He says 'Your ears

[00:02:18] Are like elephant in size'

[00:02:20] I say from you well

[00:02:22] Who can tell from ears or eyes

[00:02:27] When I was girl of eight

[00:02:29] My papa sneered at me

[00:02:32] A plainer face he'd never seen before

[00:02:36] I said to hell with fate

[00:02:38] I'll mold my destiny

[00:02:40] Packed my satchel

[00:02:41] And walked right out the door

[00:02:44] From discontented life

[00:02:46] Without a cent I was

[00:02:48] Became a name

[00:02:49] The world could not ignore

[00:02:52] I reinvent my life

[00:02:54] As every artist does

[00:02:56] I had nothing

[00:02:57] I knew nothing

[00:02:59] I only know

[00:03:00] There must be something more

[00:03:05] So much more

[00:03:08] Look at them all

[00:03:10] Their light will never dim

[00:03:12] If death should come for me

[00:03:14] They bar the door on him

[00:03:16] Though flesh may fade

[00:03:18] Canvas lives immortally

[00:03:20] And there I'll hang

[00:03:22] From now through all eternity

[00:03:24] Who gives a d**n

[00:03:27] No children visit me

[00:03:29] These are my progeny

[00:03:31] Each an exquisite me

[00:03:33] Who says I'm old

[00:03:34] I look at my life so far

[00:03:37] And I am beautiful

[00:03:39] And I feel beautiful

[00:03:41] Forever beautiful

[00:03:43] When you feel beautiful

[00:03:47] You are
