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 |
