Lyrics

Churchillian legs
Hair barely there
The harsh truth of the camera eye

Your eyes signal pain
Because of the strain of smiling
The harsh truth of the camera eye
Telling you all that you never wanted to know
Showing what you didn't want shown

My so friendly lens
Zooms into
The inner you
And it tells the harsh truth and nothing but

Laugh with us all now here
If you can
Then take the pictures home and scream
Telling you all
That you never wanted to know
Showing you what you didn't want shown

This photographer
He must have really had it in for you...

Oh, I don't want
To be judged anymore
I don't want to be judged
I would sooner be loved
I would sooner be just blindly loved...
