lirik lagu barbra streisand - putting it together (live 2000)
[verse 1]
bit by bit, putting it together
piece by piece, only way to make a work of art
every moment makes a contribution
every little detail plays a part
having just a vision’s no solution
everything depends on execution
putting it together, that’s what counts!
[verse 2]
ounce by ounce, putting it together
small amounts, adding up to make a work of art
first of all, you need a good foundation
otherwise, it’s risky from the start
takes a little c~cktail conversation
but without the proper preparation
having just a vision’s no solution
everything depends on execution
the art of making art
is putting it together, bit by bit
do wе really need all these musicians?
[verse 3]
link by link, making thе connections (yes, we do!)
drink by drink, taking every comment as it comes
learning how to play the politician
like you play piano, bass, and drums
otherwise, you’ll find your composition
isn’t gonna get much exhibition
[bridge]
art isn’t easy
every minor detail is a major decision
have to keep things in scale
have to hold to your vision
why don’t we talk about this over dinner, darling?
what’s a little c~cktail conversation
if it gets the funds for your foundation?
every time i start to feel defensive
i remember vinyl is expensive!
would you agree to do an interview?
maybe one
[verse 4]
dot by dot, building up the image
shot by shot, keeping at a distance doesn’t pay
still, if you remember your objective
not give all your privacy away
a little bit of hype can be effective
as long as you can keep it in perspective
even when you get some recognition
everything you do you still audition
[bridge]
art isn’t easy
overnight you’re a trend
you’re the right combination
then the trend’s at an end
you’re suddenly last year’s sensation
all they ever want is repetition
all they really like is what they know
gotta keep a link with your tradition
gotta learn to trust your intuition
while you reestablish your position
so that you can be on exhibit—
so that your work can be on exhibition!
[interlude]
be new, girl
they tell you ’til they’re blue, girl
you’re new or else you’re through, girl
and even if it’s true, girl
you do what you can do!
[verse 5]
bit by bit, putting it together
piece by piece, working on the vision night and day
all it takes is time and perseverance
with a little luck along the way
putting in a personal appearance
gathering supporters and adherents—
well, she’s an original (was)
mapping out the songs but in addition
harmonizing each negotiation
balancing the part that’s all musicians
with the part that’s strictly presentation
balancing the money with the mission
’til you have the perfect orchestration
even if you do have the suspicion
that it’s taking all your concentration
the art of making art
is putting it together, bit by bit
[outro]
beat by beat, part by part
sheet by sheet, chart by chart
track by track (bit by bit)
reel by reel (pout by pout)
stack by stack (snit by snit)
meal by meal (shout by shout)
deal by deal (spat by spat)
spiel by spiel (doubt by doubt)
and that is the state of the art!
thank you, wow
