Camera Talk (Live on KEXP)

[Verse 1]

We're running through the aisles

Of the churches still in style

Does this city have a curfew?

Don't you know it's good to see you too?

The riders on the Champs Élysées

We are the tourists in the cafes

We drank our wine along the river

Not believing where we were at all

[Chorus]

It's alright

The camera's talking, oh

And even though I can't be sure

Memory tells me that these times are worth working for

[Verse 2]

The buffalo in Catalina

The colored stones and troop leaders

The voices of the canopy singers

Ensured that we wouldn't sleep for long

I knew this would be the part

My plane's arrival catches me off guard

We'll all be leaving with a broken heart

Wallets empty and we're back at its start

[Chorus]

It's alright

The camera is talking, oh

And even though I can't be sure

Memory tells me that these times are worth working for

It's alright

The camera is talking, oh

The cistern is not even full

The sister is naughty

The cistern is not even

[Chorus]

It's alright

The camera is talking, oh

And even though I can't be sure

Memory tells me that these times are worth working
