Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, man painted you
Was a Renaissance chap with a lot of style,
Called a "polymath"
Because so much he could do,
Such as giving you that Mona Lisa smile.

You've smiled on many book covers, Mona Lisa,
Such as texts introducing students to art.
There are reams of theses about your sex. . .
There's a guy there, behind thy fair
Face, and his name's Leo, Mona Lisa,
Allege scholars who say you play the artist's part.

[Renaissance music interlude]

You've smiled on many book covers, Mona Lisa,
Such as one with a scholar broken apart.
Many schemes as theories in this "Codex,"
Such as priory that is Siony.
He once led it with zeal, Mona Lisa,
It's alleged, the man who made you a work of art.

Mona Lisa, such a teaser.
