Every Picture Tells a Story

Rod Stewart & The Faces
Spent some time feelin'inferior
standing in front of my mirror
Combed my
hair in a thousand ways
but I came out looking
just the same
Daddy said
Son, you better see the world
I wouldn't blame
you if you wanted to leave
But remember one thing
don't lose your head
to a woman that'll spend
your bread
So I got out
<Interlnde>
Paris was a place you
could hide away
if you felt you didn't fit in
French police wouldn't
give me no peace
They claimed
I was a nasty person
Down along the Left
Bank minding my own
Was knocked down
by a human stampede
Got arrested for
inciting a peacful riot
when all I wanted was a cup
of tea
I was accused
I moved on
Down in Rome
I wasn't getting enough
of the things that keeps a
young man alive
My body stunk but I kept my funk
at a time when
I was right out of luck
Getting desperate indeed I was
Looking like
a tourist attraction
Oh my dear I better
get out of here
for the Vatican don't
give no sanction
I wasn't ready for that, no no
I moved right out east yeah!
On the Peking ferry
I was feeling merry
sailing on my way back here
I fell
in love with a slit eyed lady
by the light of an eastern moon
Shangai Lil never used the pill
She claimed that it
just ain't natural
She took me up on deck
and bit my neck
Oh people I was glad I found her
Oh yeah I was glad I found her
I firmly believe that I
didn't need anyone but me
I sincerely thought
I was so complete
Look how wrong you can be
The women I've known
I wouldn't let tie my shoe
They wouldn't give you the
time of day
But the slit eyed lady
knocked me off my feet
God I was glad I found her
And if they had the words
I could tell to you
to help you
on the way down the road
I couldn't quote you no Dickens
Shelley or Keats
cause it's all been said before
Make the best out of the bad
just laugh it off
You didn't have to
come here anyway
So remember, every picture
tells a story don't it
every picture tells a story
every picture tells a story
every picture tells a story
every picture tells a story
every picture tells a story
every picture tells a story
