Peg
Ive seen your picture
Your name in lights above it
This is your big debut
Its like a dream come true
And when you smile for the camera
I know theyre gonna love it
I like your pin shot
I keep it with your letter
Done up in blueprint blue
It sure looks good on you
So wont you smile for the camera
I know Ill love you better
Peg
It will come back to you
Peg
It will come back to you
Then the shutter falls
You see it all in 3-d
Its your favorite foreign movie

Smile For The Camera
I see you standing out there in the hall
You seem so nervous waiting for his call
I focus on you
I reach for the lens
The shutter snaps again
(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know
(smile)
The camera never ever lies
Ive been watching you with
Eager hungry eyes
For sometime
(smile)
I hold my lens in the middle of the night
Visions of you dancing in the strobe light
Up on my wall is a picture or two
Of someone who looks like you
(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know
(smile)
The camera is my wide lens
(smile)
You know the camera is my private eye
I got color transparencies
I got black and white
(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know that
(smile)
Cameras never ever lies

Ive been watching you with telephoto eyes

Be, Here, Now
‘The camera does not lie’;
yet the truth rests in yourself..
Here’s this photo of one, said
by those who know, to be a saint;
(no one to say smile now please;
no one to say just say cheese..)
here is one who knows that all and everything
is God; so looks into the camera and beyond
and at all of us, and at all of all of us
as God; in goodwill; Godwill;
looking Lordward to the Lord in you and me.
Who can value such a photoed shakti..
shower of grace in just one smile
from one who gives all of himself,
to the camera as the God in us; ‘developed’, multiplied
towards infinity, and rolled around a printing press,
flashed in binary upon computer screen.
We as we look at it become all truth
and like the camera, cannot lie
about ourself: we are perfection.
Before the camera was,
I AM. click.

Dirty Movies
Now whos that babe with the fabulous shadow?
Its only one scene, but to me it dont matter
Her movies get down like you wont find in my hometown
They wont believe it when they see what theyre seein
Go see baby now!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing youve ever seen
Now her name is up in lights
Everything turns out all right
Daddys little sweetie after some damn rainbow
Got the big deal in the back of a limo
Now showbiz is so thrillin, the camera rolls shes willin
They wont believe it when they see what theyre seein
Go see baby now!
Hey, you remember when that girl was prom queen?
Oh wow! take it off! take it all off!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing youve ever seen
Now her name is up in lights
Everything turns out all right
Now they believe it, now that theyve seen it
Go see baby now!
Pictures on the silver screen
Greatest thing youve ever seen
Now my babys up in lights
Everything turns out all right

0426 Was it a smile or a cry? For Salma
You reminded me, and I dug it out -
the snap I've always hated but didn't know why;
now you've reminded me and thank you -
they know they have to stand with their back to the sun
so, without thinking of you, but
thinking of their future thinking about the past
they make you stand facing the sun
so you squint and screw your eyes up which is bad enough
while they take random advice from the other adults
and then as if that wasn't bad enough
they say 'smile! ' as if they're saying
you can win this race (for us) .
Is it a smile or a cry?
it's the record of the first time you lied on camera
for your parents who should be ashamed.
It would be more honest
if instead of smile or watch the birdie or say cheese
they said 'Now lie for the camera! ! '...
and somewhere
truth would smile.

This Love This Heart
This love, this heart, these arms to hold
So tight to you, I wont let go
Can this be real, or just some dream that feels so true
I wish you love, I wish you more
You are all that I live for
Ill never hurt you believe me
My heart beats just for you
It only beats for you
Ill keep the fire alight for you
Cant think of nothing else, what can I do
This lonely heart of mine, it only beats for you
It only beats for you
You bring me peace, you make me smile
You give me strength and all the while
You ask for nothing, only love
And my heart beats just for you
It only beats for you
Id say all these things to you
If you were here, but thats not gonna be
Cos you re not here at all
Theres only me
But I wont stop trying
I wont give up, Ill wait for you
til you come back, its all I can do
Ill be right here, Im going nowhere without you
Give me the chance, just make the call
Just say the words, Im waiting for
Just let this heart of mine show you

These arms, theyre only for you
This love, this heart

Your scrapbooks filled with pictures
Of all your leading men
Oh baby dont put my picture
In there with them
Oh dont make us some little girls dream
That can not ever really ever come true
Baby dont do it to me
I wont do it to you
You see all the romantic movies
You dream and take the boys home
But when the action fades girl
Youre left there all alone
----------?

---------to see the late late show
----------?
--------do it?

---make you cry like you do girl
Now every night you go out looking
For true loves satisfaction
But in the morning you always end up
Settling for just lights, camera, action
In another cameo role
With some bit play youre befriending
Youre gonna go broken hearted
Looking for that happy ending
Well girl youre gonna youre gonna end up
Just another lonely ticket sold
Crying alone in the theater
At the end of the show
Dont make us some little girls dream
That can not ever really ever come true
Baby dont do it to me
I wont do it to you
Yeah, I wont do it to you

A Picture Of Two Farm Kids
the little girl
knows how to stare
at the camera
she does not know
how to smile
on her old tattered
clothes
you think the little boy
at her side
knows how to make
that compromising
smile
neither,
nor,
that is the truth
at the time when the
camera clicked
his wisdom
tooth was aching.

Tv Movie
I woke up last night shaking from a dream
For in that dream I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great american novel, you see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Chorus:
Well now, its one two three you take the money
Yeah its as easy as a b c
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Well they can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or chinese
And do things that I never did do
Theyre gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when its over, what I did there will be what I done
Now I dont want my name in a history book
Nobodys ever gonna see
No, theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
(chorus)
Well Im a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
Well I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
Yeah theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
Now I dont want no inscription on my gravestone
No long soliloquy
No theyre gonna make a tv movie out of me
(chorus)

Camera vs, Pencil
Exactly same and true
Picture of objects wonderful
The magical instrument
Captures the real image
But real things become still
Logics, camera can't fill
Images, camera only captures
Pencil gives birth to a picture
The sketches drawn by pencil
Speak and make you feel
Not only liveliness of the object
But compels one too, to interpret
Camera can't take image of soul
Pencil draws sketch of in and out
camera and pencil's combination
can fetch reality, feel and imagination

I made a big mistake with him the first day I shot. We're shooting the scene where I come back from the party, the dance, in the sleigh with Julie Christie and we turn the corner and go past the camera and the camera follows us just a little bit and we disappear.

Smile Feat. Lady Saw
Alright..., alright..., first of all
When you wake up in the evening and the day is shot
Find yourself complaining about the things you ain't got
Never goes just the way you want it to
Clich?of the day, c'est la vie, that's just life
It ain't easy, it's so tough, it's so easy
1:
(whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
Put a smile on your face
Make the world a better place
Put a smile on your face
(whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
Put a smile on your face
Make the world a better place
Put a smile on your face
(whatcha gonna do, say, whatcha gonna do)
And another thing
You can say i'm a dreamer and you thinks it's all cool
Preaching about the better life i learned in school
But you get what you give in this life that we live
And all that you do will come back to you
Repeat 1
[lady saw]
Yo
When thing's isn't right, there's not need to fight-a
(?), and everything nice
(?) please be polite even when you're hurting
Don't forget to smile
Give love to our nation, big or small
When you do good, you'll get your reward
United with undivided we fall
Put a smile on your face and greet one and all
Life, it ain't easy, oh it's so tough, it ain't easy
Repeat 1 x2
People love you when you smile
And hate you when it's through
Lots of happiness, (?) we are wishing you
If you come from jamaica or honolulu, yeah
Keep a smile on your face
I'll see the good that you do, (?)
Smile (smile), and everything will be fine
Love it when you smile, you look beautiful like that
(?), your dimples are so cute, hahaha
I love the happiness and..smile

I still remember the night we met
You said you loved my smile
But your love for me was like a summer breeze
Oh, it lasted for a while
I could hold on a little tighter I know
But when you love someone you gotta let em go so
Im gonna smile
cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you cant see me cry
Im gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
Im gonna smile
Kiss me once for the good times, baby
Kiss me twice for goodbye
You cant help how you dont feel
And it doesnt matter why
Give me a chance to bow out gracefully
cause thats how I want you to remember me
Im gonna smile
cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you cant see me cry
Im gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
Im gonna smile
Im gonna smile
So you can find the courage
Laugh, so you wont see me hurtin
Im gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
Im gonna smile.

Marriage Bureau Rendezvous
Well Ive been lookin after number one for too long
And it seemed the love was passing me by
So I thought I better do something about it
And thats why Im sittin here lookin cross the table at you
Thats why Im sittin here lookin cross the table at you
Well a lonely man needs a marriage bureau
Where they sit you right down and you fill in a form
Would you like a blonde or a black or a blue rinse
Do you like 'em small, love 'em slim long and tall
Do you like 'em small, love 'em slim long and tall
Oh no, too many questions
Im looking for a girl like momma used to be
Shes cooking up a dream, shes baking ecstasy
Wont it be fine when
I find her
Would I like to take her to a movie or the theatre
Would I pick her up at home or would I like to meet her
Somewhere we could take a good look at each other
Smile and say hello or walk away
Smile and say hello or walk away
So Im squeaky clean in and out of the bath
I never shaved so close before
Im gonna put on a tie, Im gonna shine up my shoes
Im gonna slick back my hair, Ive got nothin to lose
Oh, oh, Ill be stinkin so good
Like Im drowning in a sea of cologne
Hey... do you know you remind me of someone
But Im here making eyes at you
And I think were gonna say goodbye to the bureau
Close the files, turn the page, start anew
Close the files, turn the page, start anew

for the coppers
harassing folks in the streets
smile copper,

for the coppers throwing us against the car
with arms round our backs &
face pressed into the metal with one hand gripping
the back of the neck
savagely
(like you had all the power in the world) ,

gotcha

copper,
so smile, copper, smile-
Android's NYCLU app. makes it so
easy, to find you not doin' the job
our tax dollars pay you to,
so
smile copper, smile-
with these pics, with this footage,
i take your fucking badge-
with these pics, with this footage,
i file a suit against you-
with these pics, with this footage,
gonna take your car, take your house &
put that big mark on your record so
you know what it feels like-
with these pics, with this footage,
the blame lies where it belongs-
with these pics, with this footage,
we put your guilty ass behind bars-
with these pics & with this footage
justice will be done-
so
smile copper,
smile.
