I've been on a carnelian kick lately.

my year in review
all those nice little things you say
oh i really appreciate them too
all those kind little things you say
keep those cards and letters coming too
i spend a whole lot of time
with my reconnaissance photographs
irrefutable evidence
never pleads on my behalf
though they're not well developed
my mind's eye sees them true
all these little failures
of my year in review
there's a photographic essay
and you know cameras they never lie
little slips on little tongues
and my stinking alibis
let them stay unembellished
let them say what will say
they need no running commentary
'tween the pages of my days
though they're not well developed
they should tell the naked truth
all these little failures
of my year in review
check my passport and credentials
you see i come from a long lineage
but down here in the darkroom
you can manipulate the image
yeah my snapshot emotions
and the rough footage of my panic
i'm a poor composition
with a flair for the dramatic
and i don't show them often
oh you know what that might do
all these little failures
of my year in review
oh i really appreciate them too
all those kind little things you say
keep those cards and letters coming too
i spend a whole lot of time
with my reconnaissance photographs
irrefutable evidence
never pleads on my behalf
