Kodachrome

When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school,
It's a wonder I can think at all
And though my lack of education
Hasn't hurt me none,
I can read the writing on the wall.

Kodachrome,
They give us those nice bright colors,
They give us the greens of summers,
Makes you think all the world's
A sunny day, oh yeah!
I got a Nikon camera,
I love to take a photograph,
So Mama, don't take
My Kodachrome away!

If you took all the girls I knew
When I was single,
Brought them all together
For one night,
I know they'd never match
My sweet imagination,
Everything looks better
In black and white.

Kodachrome...

Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away! (3×)
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome, (3×) away!
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome
And leave your boys so far from home!
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away! (3×)
