 (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
