We have a treat for you all! It's Captain Obvious and The No-duhs With their newest hit single, "A picture of a picture" How existential are they?! They use a clavichord, a harpsichord A mellotron along with an autoharp And of course a theramin to express this song to the universe I will say no more Here they are, Captain Obvious and The No-duhs "Hey, are you free today?" "Hey are we still on for tonight?" "Do you live in eternal Or temporal time?" "Lets look back on our illegible live's highlights" "I got a paper cut from a bookmark" "But I haven't got a bastard's clue" "If I should round to nearest tenth" "Or pop all of the animals made from balloons" "Now, I'm looking at a picture of a picture" "And I'm truly the worst for wear " "You missed the cut off date" "You're camera shy so there" "Hey, you wanna chill today?" "Hey what you wanna do tonight?" "Want to watch the changing of the tides?" "Or take in a movie then go and grab a bite?" "I disregard the label makers" "And mark all the typos" "Shorten all the long winded speeches" "And smelt all the silver idols" "Now, I'm looking at a picture of a picture" "And I'm truly the worst for wear " "You missed the cut off date" "You're camera shy so there" "Knit me a sweater of vanity and greed" "Sew me a lust and sloth tapestry" "Croshay me a hat of envy and wrath" "Macramé me a bracelet of gluttony" "Now, I'm looking at a picture of a picture" "And I'm truly the worst for wear " "You missed the cut off date" "You're camera shy so there" -Tommy Johnson

A Picture of a Picture
We have a treat for you all! It's Captain Obvious and The No-duhs With their newest hit single, "A picture of a picture" How existential are they?! They use a clavichord, a harpsichord A mellotron along with an autoharp And of course a theramin to express this song to the universe I will say no more Here they are, Captain Obvious and The No-duhs "Hey, are you free today?" "Hey are we still on for tonight?" "Do you live in eternal Or temporal time?" "Lets look back on our illegible live's highlights" "I got a paper cut from a bookmark" "But I haven't got a bastard's clue" "If I should round to nearest tenth" "Or pop all of the animals made from balloons" "Now, I'm looking at a picture of a picture" "And I'm truly the worst for wear " "You missed the cut off date" "You're camera shy so there" "Hey, you wanna chill today?"
