Anderson Ian Photo Shop Lyrics

Photo Shop Lyrics

A Morris Minor, a café noir – 

Banana smoothie, snails in a jar.

Three dodgy sailors, a girl on skates –

A little too muscled from doing
weights. 



A family wedding, a sushi bar –

Sand in the
Seychelles, karaoke star.

Lads on the razzle get lost in love.

Paddington station, rain clouds above.



The crumpled sheets of a
long hot summer.

Stored images like an acorn, drop.

Squirreled
away, but still remembered

by the man in the photo shop.



Rush hour on Praed Street: behind the glass –

a picture process, in one
hour fast.

Intimate portraits of topless wives –

flashed
indiscretions: snap-happy lives.
