The Go-Betweens - Eight Pictures lyrics

rate me

I suspected for some time

that you had other lovers

But I didn't know that those men in your room

weren't really your brothers

And I was working

in the ice-rink

spring and summer that year

And I remember

some of those dates

and others are still very clear

I shot you with my camera

Caught you doing things with him

I shot you with my camera

Caught you doing things with him

And you can't complain

You can't cry

'cause cameras never lie

I was going to every school there was

Not trying to catch up

You can't quit while you're ahead

You're still young

And you were seeing the actor

Same publicity shot for six years

And I didn't have any courage

Just respect for his age

I shot you with my camera

Caught you making love with him

I shot you with my camera

Caught you doing things with him

And you can't complain

You can't cry

'cause cameras never lie

You were wearing those leather boots

I'd hid them on the floor

Running to someone to grab their arm

and telling them what you were here for

And so I drove the big car

and parked it way up front

And when is a door not a door ?

When it's ajar

I shot you with my camera

Caught you making love with him

And I shot you with my camera

Caught you doing things with him

And you can't complain

You can't cry

'cause cameras never lie

Eight pictures

Got eight pictures

Eight pictures
