Lyrics One Polaroid a Day - Ted Leo and the Pharmacists

One Polaroid a Day

One Polaroid a day — perfect every single way
Anchor in a winding ley
Lets you get on while others hang on document decay
But you wanna control everything
You are your own worst enemy — and you don’t wanna talk about it
But in the time it takes to turn your cameras on
You can keep on clicking but the moment’s gone
But you wanna control everything
You are your own worst enemy
One Polaroid a day — the discipline to let things play
And ever-present to remain
Untethered in the Old King’s Road you can pull the trigger and then let it go
But you wanna control everything
You are your own worst enemy — and you don’t wanna talk about it
And in the time it takes to turn your cameras on
You can keep on clicking but the moment’s gone
But you wanna control everything
You are your own worst enemy
You kill the moment when you cling
Lay down your ownership and sing
