Lyrics
Pictures of America
V1
Momma says the pope is dead and that?s a shame
But your heads just a cannon ball of love and pain
Can I call up to see you?
V2
It makes no sense to stay home reading magazines
Graffiti scares the cars and bars with memories
Can I call up to see you?
Chorus
There?s picture?s of America
Floating down the stream
Well I tried to save the best one
But they ripped with honest
So it?s a shame about the weather
We should really stick together
Please don?t leave
Please don?t leave leave leave
V3
He cuts his head in two to watch the dolphins swim
It gives him peace and stress release and oxygen
You say la da did a
V 4
And every days a new day
Every day?s a new day
When I call up to see you
Chorus
There?s picture?s of America
Floating down the stream
Well I tried to save the best one
But they ripped with honest
So it?s a shame about the weather
We should really stick together
Please don?t leave
Please don?t leave leave leave
Bridge
Please don?t leave in to the night
Please don?t leave we?ll make it right
Please don?t leave
I wanna stay by your side
But you?ll never let me lye
No you?ll never let me lye
V5 {SAME AS ONE}
Momma says the pope is dead and that?s a shame
But your heads just a cannon ball of love and pain
Can I call up to see you?
Chorus 3
Extra line- but we both got nothing better
