Lyrics

When I think back on all the crap I've learned in high school
It's a wonder I can think at all
Though my lack of education hasn't hurt me much
I can read the writings on the walls

Chorus:
Kodachrome, they give us those nice bright colours
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera, I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
Brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white

Chorus

Mama don't take my kodachrome away, mama don't take my kodachrome away
Mama don't take my kodachrome away

Mama don't take my kodachrome, mama don't take my kodachrome
Mama don't take my kodachrome away
Mama don't take my kodachrome and leave your boy so far from home
Mama don't take my kodachrome away
Mama don't take my kodachrome, whew whew, mama don't take my kodachrome away
