Pictures Now

Chris Murphy, Sloan

[Verse 1]
We missed our chance
I don't think we're going to get another
You all should glance
At the teenage pictures of your mother

[Pre-Chorus]
They're in colour
They're in cooler
Than the pictures of today
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I miss the time
I was learning how to print a picture
It's not so bad
I could never reproduce the look they once had

[Chorus]
Pictures now
I don't know how it happened
But they've changed
Red and blue and green are not the same

And when do we
Intend to be half as cool
As all of the pictures of our parents dignified
They're looking good so stand aside
We couldn't copy if we tried

[Verse 3]
Pictures of today
May be true but they're duller
CMYK doesn't have the ring of Technicolor

[Pre-Chorus]
We're in trouble
We're in colour
Fairly close, but nowhere near
We got better
Ways to print but as I say

[Chorus]
Pictures now
I don't know how it happened
But it seems
Red and blue and green have turned obscene
Unlike your mother as a teen
