lyrics

It's Camden market and New York City
Postcards from people with fancy writing
Well it was different then
And did they know
Their letters would end up here on show
Between Kiss patches and drug paraphernalia

Splayed out on tables, oh what a pity
Photos of women by the bathing machines on the beach
A date signed: 1880
Oh where did they go to place that picture here
Between anime dresses and vintage dungarees

I hope they remember us
Like victorians smiling in photographs
That we're too sweet to discard
And impressionist will marvel
At the impressions we've left on them
So they'll commit us to canvas
Or print us on paper
So when future kids see us it'll make them feel better
Woah-oh

That's two for £10, and it's kinda shitty
Bet those smiling swimmers had never seen a city
Let alone spent that much on a used postcard

And if that's the way its to be
And in 100 years some shop gets a picture of me and you then...

I hope they remember us
Like victorians smiling in photographs
That we're too sweet to discard
And the cubists will marvel
At how we're not condensed to grids
So they'll commit us to canvas
Or print us on paper
So when future kids see us it'll make them feel better
Woah-oh

I hope they remember us
Like victorians smiling in photographs
That we're too sweet to discard
And impressionist will marvel
At the impressions we've left on them
So they'll commit us to canvas
Or print us on paper
So when future kids see us it'll make them feel better
Woah-oh
