YOU TAKE MY PHOTOGRAPH (I BREAK YOUR FACE)
(Billy Connolly)

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

I give you my promise you'll be sorry that you did it
I give you my promise you'll be sorry that you did it

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

Take a liberty and say I let you
In the darkroom I am going to get you...and your camera (camera)
I know a trick and you are bound to love it
When I tell you where I'm going to shove it
The camera (camera)

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

All you want to do is sell me to the highest bidder
All you want to do is sell me to the highest bidder

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

I've a trick that's very acrobatic
With a Nikon or an Instamatic camera (camera)
I don't it like when you get the picture
Can you guess where I am going to stick your camera (camera)

Smile please (flash)
Close together (flash)
Make a funny face (flash)
This way (flash)
Over here (flash)
Give her a kiss, give her a kiss (flash)

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

Don't tell me it's just a job and you're obeying orders
Don't tell me it's just a job and you're obeying orders

You take my photograph, I break your face
You take my photograph, I break your face

I don't like it when I finished working
Coming home only to find you lurking with your camera (camera)
Did you really think that I would be delighted
Just remember you were not invited with your camera (camera)
