Picture Show |
A young man from a small town |
With a very large imagination |
Lay alone is his room with his radio on |
Looking for another station |
When the static from the Mouthpiece |
Gave way to the sound below |
James Dean went out to Hollywood |
And put his picture is a picture show |
And it’s Oh Daddy get off of your knees |
Mama why’d you have to go |
Your Darlin' Jim is out on a limb |
I put my picture in a picture show |
Put my picture in a picture show |
Hamburgers Cheeseburger |
Wilbur and Orville Wright |
John Garfield is the afternoon |
Montgomery Clift at night |
When the static from the mouthpiece |
Gave way to the sound below |
James Dean went out to Hollywood |
And put his picture in a picture show |
A Mocca Man in a wigwam |
Sitting on a reservation |
With a big black hole |
In the belly of his soul |
Waiting on an explanation |
While the white man |
Sits on his fat can |
And takes pictures of the Navajo |
Every time he clicks |
His Kodak pics |
He steals a little bit of soul |
