Having My Picture Taken lyrics

Song information

Artist: Boomtown Rats
Album: The Fine Art Of Surfacing

Lyrics

My camera
Sees things my eyes can't see
I have it focused
From here to eternity
Catch the moment, catch the light, catch your breath
Let me freeze your frame
We'll synchronize machine and brain
But don't mind me..
I'm having my picture taken

I can choose
Each day who I want to be
You can choose
Each day who you want to see
We'll scan the crowd and pan the rounds of all those
Distant scenes
Immortalize a slice of time
Hey don't mind me..
I'm having my picture taken

Flash: another instant in an instamatic
Click: another reflex set on automatic
Snap: another moment of the life dramatic
You really should have been there it was so fantastic
