Dear Old Jackson Pollack,
died when he was 44
In a alcohol related single car cash
When he pushed the pedal to the floor.
He got himself an exhibition
At the museum of modern art
And in the year 2000 they made a movie
And Ed Harris got the part
Pollack got married to Lee Krasner
His painting style they say it was unique
But in 1936 David Sequeiros
Already used the liquid paint technique
Hang those paint cans above the canvas
Blow holes in them with a gun
Who needs brushes and a palette
Who thought painting could be such fun
The Guggenheims loved Jack the dipper
Though Janet Sobel had the notion first.
Pollack he danced around the canvas
Danced so hard he was fit to burst
He never used a title for his paintings
Too hard when supping from the loving cup
Instead he just used plain old numbers
Come in number 44 your time is up
Colman used his painting on an LP cover
Teri Holman found one in his truck
The experts said it needed fractal identification
Jack the Dripper would say who gives a fuck.
