Mona Lisa Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely, they have blamed you
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?
musical interlude
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?
Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely, they have blamed you
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?
Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?

Wyclef Jean - Mona Lisa
(introduction)
Yo mona lisa, could I get a date on friday and if your busy, i
Wouldnt mind taking saturday.
(wyclef talking)
Right about now, if you are in your jeep. please turn up your radio.
If you dont have a jeep, and you have a little hooptie I still want
You to crank up your volume.
We want all the ladies to sit back, relax, let your hair out.
Wyclef presents the neville brothers in the house tonight.
(nevilles singing)
I know a girl, she ruled my world.
Whatever I need, she supplied.
Living in paradise.
She ruled my heart, till death do we part.
(her love was like esctasy)
*chorus*
Atleast thats how I thought it would be.
(so neville brothers what you telling me)
Atleast that how I thought it would be
(one question, what was her name)
Mona lisa, you called my name.
Laid it apart but I did not respond
And you ask me what I am thinking of
In the morning Ill be gone, no more loving after dawn.
No longer we can share the love that was never there.
When the moon has lost its light.
And the stars no longer bright
And no longer can we share, the love that was never there.
(aint no need to cry girl. its gonna be alright)
Girl dont you cry.
(girl dont you cry)
Please dry your eyes
All you ever been was faithful in my life.
So I apologize
I hope the future brings us back together.
Atleast thats how I thought it would be.
Atleast thats how I thought it would be.
(yo, neville brothers. what was her name)
*repeat chorus*
(wyclef speaking)
Right about now if you are in dance, I want you to hold your girl
Real tight. we got the neville brothers in the house tonight. along
Side wyclef, you know how we do it. I want to apologize to you. i
Never wrote a love song. this is my first one.

Live in London, in 1983.
MONA LISA:
"Mona Lisa" is an Academy Award-winning song written by Ray Evans and Jay Livingston for the Paramount Pictures film Captain Carey, U.S.A. (1950). The soundtrack version by Nat King Cole spent 8 weeks as number 1 in the Billboard chart in the USA in 1950. Also, Cole's version of the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1992.[1] In 1987, it was used as the theme of the British film Mona Lisa. An uncredited version of Mona Lisa plays in the background of one scene in Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window (1954).
Various artists, including Elvis Presley, Willie Nelson, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, and Nat King Cole's daughter Natalie Cole, have released cover versions of this song. Bruddah Iz (Israel Kamakawiwo'ole) also covered the song on the album Alone in IZ World.
A rockabilly version of "Mona Lisa" (b/w/ "Foolish One") was released by Carl Mann on Phillips International Records (#3539) in March 1959 and reached as high as #25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Conway Twitty recorded a version of "Mona Lisa" in February 1959 but planned to release it only as an album cut (on an EP and an LP by MGM Records). Sam Phillips signed Carl Mann to record his version of the song after the Twitty version began getting radio play in early 1959[2]. This was the most successful single in Mann's career. The melody is slightly different, and the lyrics are also mostly the same as in the original version by Nat King Cole, though a few more phrases are added in that elaborate more on the girl he likes.

The Mona Lisa is widely considered the greatest portrait of all time. It appears in countless advertisements, has inspired poetry, sculpture, forgeries, and theft. But seriously, why? The painting is small, only 30 x 21 inches, the color is somber, the background seems desolate and eerie, and the subject isn't anyone historically significant. So, what is all the brouhaha about? Is it really all about her mystifying gaze and a quirkly smile? Well, let's take a closer look.
