Tom McRae - Keep Your Picture Clear (Home Demo) lyrics

rate me

Here I go

back again

sliding off the ceiling

was I gone for long

did I just flick the switch?

Across the street

away from me

a man is singing Sympathy for the devil

and he's getting all the words wrong

His newspaper flies desperately

but words aren't wings like gravity

they'll keep you here

It's a theory to subscribe to

but you know you're being lied to

so keep your picture clear

keep your picture clear

Stay awake

the lines are drawn

you're never right until you're wrong

in the eyes of the world

And a picture tells a thousand lies

little dots in black and white

you've no idea

the strongest will survive

but it's the scum that always rises

So keep your picture clear

keep your picture clear

keep your picture clear

You talk just like a diplomat

but hide the gun behind your back

and leaders need a bloody war

congratulations, this is yours

looking through the history books

of liars cheats and petty crooks

they'll print your picture clear

they'll print your picture clear

keep your picture clear

So close another file

of revolution turned to style

we're so tired of walking blind

growing fat in hungry times

keep your picture clear

keep your picture clear
