They Might Be Giants - Lord Snowdon lyrics

I'm on the outside looking out
All these faces it's a museum
Dummies, models, heavy sleepers
Our time is over we're all sorry

Lord Snowdon reporting for service
Ashtrays and busy lines
Silent days always with you, dear
No one is working

I'm on the outside looking out
Holding onto an invitation
So much business for an impression
So much patience for impatience

Lord Snowdon reporting for service
Ennui and shopping sprees
Light through a shutter's lens
Where it's frozen like you, dear
Frozen like you, dear

In thе haze of these final days
I'll go far in an opеn car
Oh, don't pine for another time
Be content with a slow descent

Lord Snowdon reporting for service
Ennui and shopping sprees
Light through a shutter's lens
Where it's frozen like you, dear
Frozen like you, dear
