Picture yourself, when your getting old,
Sat by the fireside, and ponder it all (?)
Picture Book, pictures of your mama,
taken by your poppa, a long time ago...
Picture book, of people with eachother
to prove they love eachother, a long time ago...
Na, na, na, na, na, na...
Na, na, na, na, na, na...
Picture book!
(repeat intro)
A picture of you... in your birthday suit
You sat in the sun on a hot afternoon.
Picture Book, you momma and your poppa, your fat old Uncle Charlie,
a-boozing (cruising?) with their freinds.
Picture Book, a holiday in August,
outside a bed and breakfast, in sunny South Bend.
Picture Book, those days when you were happy,
when you were just a baby, a long time ago...
Na, na, na, na, na, na... (x4)
Picture Book! (x4)
(single guitar)
Picture Book, Na, na, na, na, na,
Na, na, na, na, na...
A scooby-dooby-doo...
(entire band)
Picture Book, Na, na, na, na, na,
Na, na, na, na, na...
A scooby-dooby-doo...
Picture Book, pictures of your momma,
Taken by you poppa, a long time ago
A Long time ago... (x4)
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Outro (basically same as intro)
easy song right?
figure it out if its not, dummy!
