Picture Book - Alternate Version Songtext
von The Kinks

Picture yourself when you′re getting old
Sat by the fireside, a-pondering on

Picture book, pictures of your mama
Taken by your papa a long time ago
(Picture book) of people with each other
To prove they loved each other
A long time ago

Picture book
Picture book

A picture of you in your birthday suit
You sat in the sun on a hot afternoon

Picture book, your mama and your papa
And fat old Uncle Charlie a-boozing with their friends
(Picture book) a holiday in August
Outside, a bed and breakfast
In sunny Southend


(Picture book) when you were just a baby
Those days when you were happy
A long time ago

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
A-scooby-dooby-doo

Picture book
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
A-scooby-dooby-doo

Picture book
Pictures of your mama, taken by your papa
A long time ago

Long time ago
Long time ago
Long time ago
Yeah-yeah-yeah
