Lyrics
Well I waited like a fool standin' on eggshells
For half an hour when I saw you at the stairwell
Well your makeup was a mess
Where you had been I dare not guess
And though you never did confess
I got the picture
I get the picture
Slick in glossy black & white
I get the picture
You're gonna be with him tonight
Try your hardest to disguise
I see the truth there in your eyes
You know the camera never lies
And I get the picture
Well my friends all tried to tell the dirty rumor
Love is blind that's why I didn't buy it sooner
They said I didn't know the half
I trusted you despite their laughs
Until I saw the Photograph
And I got the picture
