[Verse 1]
I found this photograph
Stashed between the old joist walls
In a trunk behind the attic
Desk where on something falls
Stuck between forgotten songs
Written in a foreign hand
Mass-printed for the fans
Of some forgotten big brass band

[Chorus]
Was she willing when she said
Those are pretty photographs
Were they happy in their time?
Does this picture tell a lie?
Big smiles for the camera
They call it their own
A moment to forget your troubles
Call it your own

[Verse 2: Non-lyrical Vocalizing]

[Chorus]
Did you get ahead of it?
Movies hadn't happened yet
Television's just a dream
Radio was soon to bring
Big smiles to your father
You call it your own
A moment to forget your troubles
Call it your own
[Interlude]
Natalie, Natalie, Natalie, Natalie, Natalie

[Chorus]
Was she willing when she said
Those are pretty photographs
Were you happy in your time?
Does this picture tell a lie?
Big smiles for your father
They call it your own
A moment to forget your troubles
Call it your own

[Outro]
Big smiles for your father
Call it your own
A moment to forget your troubles
Call it your own
