When I think back on all the crap I learned at high school,
it's a wonder I can think at all.
And though my lack of education has'nt hurt me none,
I can read the writing on the wall.
Kodachrome
They give those nice bright colours,
they give those greens of summers,
they make you think that all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera,
I love to take a photograph,
so mamma don't take my kodachrome away.
If you took all the girls I knew when I was single,
and brought them all together for one night,
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination,
and everything looks worse in black and white.

Mamma don't take my kodachrome away.
Don't take my kodachrome away.
Mamma don't take my kodachrome,
mamma don't take my kodachrome,
mamma don't take my kodachrome away.
Mamma don't take my kodachrome,
leave your cars too far from home,
mamma don't take my kodachrome away.
Mamma don't take my kodachrome,
mamma don't take my kodachrome away.
