Born In A Flash


Photograph, lookin' down at me
I'm lookin' at the past
Something about my family in high contrast
Something about my infancy in white and black

Something about my memories
In a photograph, a portrait of the past

Born in a flash

Polaroid, 1954
It was a Polaroid
'55 through '56
Were undestroyed, daddy was an anarchist
We can't afford
Somebody catching wind of this here

Polaroid, a portrait of before

Born in a flash
Born in a flash
A little piece of the past
Born in a flash

Ohh
Ohhhh, Aahhhh, Ohhh

Photograph, a portrait of the past
Born in a flash
Born in a flash
Born in a flash
Born in a flash
