that you see in one show

and you can decide who it is

or if he copies Banksy

or if he copies Shepard Fairey,

if he copies...

it's about time.

You'll see in time

who I will be,

because with time,

you'll see my creativity.

You'll see

if I'm a real artist or not.

I do think

that the whole phenomenon

of Thierry's obsession

with street art,

becoming a street artist,

a lot of suckers

buying into his show

and him selling a lot

of expensive art very quickly,

it's... anthropologically,

sociologically,

it's a fascinating thing

to observe,

and maybe there's some things

to be learned from it.

I don't know what it means,

Thierry's huge success

and arrival in the art world.

I mean, maybe Thierry

was a genius all along.

Maybe he got a bit lucky.

Maybe it means art

is a bit of a joke.

If Thierry can pull it off,

then amazing,

but, you know, it's kind of...

I think...

I think the joke is on...

I don't know

who the joke's on, really.

I don't even know

if there is a joke.

I don't think Thierry

played by the rules,

in some ways,

but then, there aren't

supposed to be any rules,

so I don't really know

what the moral is.

I mean, I always used to

encourage everyone I met

to make art.

I used to think

everyone should do it.

I don't really do that

so much anymore.

Some people, you know,

might think that I'm a rabbit

because I'm running around,

and they think

that I'm not organized.

But I said,

"Wait till the end of life,

and you'll see if I'm a rabbit

or a turtle. "

# Do you know why #

# You got feelings

in your heart? #

# Don't let fear of me

then fool you #

# What you see sets you apart #

# And there's nothing here

to bind you #

# It's no way

for life to start #

# Do you know that tonight

the streets are ours? #

# Tonight the streets are ours #

# These lights in our hearts #

# They tell no lies #

# Those people #

# They got nothing

in their souls #

# And they make our TVs

blind us #

# From our vision

and our goals #

# Oh, the trigger of time #

# It tricks you

so you have no way to grow #

# But do you know that tonight

the streets are ours? #

# Tonight the streets are ours #

# These lights in our hearts #

# They tell no lies #

# And no one else can haunt me

the way that you can haunt me #

# I need to know you want me #

# I couldn't be without you #

# And the light that shines

around you #

# No, nothing ever mattered

more than my darling #

# But tonight

the streets are ours #

# Tonight the streets are ours #

# These lights in our street

are ours #

# Tonight the streets are ours #

# These lights in our hearts #

# They tell no lies #
