Strum
D-DU-UDU
(Riff 1)
Venetian exper-tise
Inspired by Titian
Which he modi -fied
Fine tuned along dutch lines
He's painting revenge
Embittered by lack of success
Oooh oohhh
(Riff 1)
With signature techniques
Attention to details
And fine tell tale brushstrokes
Of badger and sable
Expressing contempt
For greedy dealers
Getting rich
At the artist's expense
Infamous forger and restorer
Judas Unrepentant
Branded a charming old lovable rogue
Judas Unrepentant Hey
Judas Unrepentant Hey
Judas!
(Riff 1)
His time bombs are in place
And anachronisms
Clues pointing to the truth
If ever they are X-rayed
He wrote legends in lead white
To trick the experts
And hoodwink
Hoodwink the trained eye
Infamous forger and restorer
Judas Unrepentant
Branded a charming old lovable rogue
Judas Unrepentant Hey
Judas Unrepentant Hey
Judas Unrepentant
Establishing provenance
Acquiring old frames with Christies numbers
Then paints a picture in the same style
Specialising in minor works by major artists

All rise
Thirteen watercolours by Samuel Palmer
Have proven to be his undoing
And so he confesses then he is arrested
Charged him with conspiracy to defraud
Years of chain smoking and breathing in fumes from restorations
The stress of the court case had taken it's toll
His trial was halted due to I'll health
(Riff 1+Organ Solo)
So now we can all buy
Real genuine fakes
That's posthumous fame
It's always the same
Infamous forger and restorer
Judas Unrepentant
Branded a charming old lovable rogue
Judas Unrepentant
Feeling like Robin Hood
Just as good
As Rembrandt or Titian, Hey
Judas Unrepentant Hey
Judas Unrepentant
to Riff 1 with Guitar solo
Judas Unrepentant
Aaaaa aaaaah
Oooooh ooohhh
oooh
