Lyrics Damon Albarn

Damon Albarn

Photographs (You Are Taking Now)

R: When the photographs you're taking now are taken down again

When the heavy clouds that hide the sun have gone

The millions of us on the hill from the star to lands end

When photographs you're taking now are taken now press send

This is a precious opportunity beware of the photographs you are taking now

We are flying over black sands

In a glass aeroplane

Crashing in slow motion in another cityscape game

Where the feeling is supernatural

Like passing into other worlds

The ending dissolution when the mother ship, it explodes

R:

We were walking like zombies on over

To the church of John Coltrane

8 hours on a bus from sunset but freedom taking cocaine

In the patent courts of nature

All is but a vanity

And the metronome that defeats you

Is the monochrome that you see

R:

This is a precious opportunity beware of the photographs you are taking now

Photographs you are taking now

Photographs you are taking now
