Tom Mcrae - Keep Your Picture Clear Lyrics

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
