In My Little Snapshot Album

In My Little Snapshot Album - George Formby

Now I'm a young inventor

A chap with good ideas

I've built myself a camera

It took me years and years

It's a wonderful invention with special x ray tricks

It can take a picture in the dark

And can even see through bricks

I bought myself an album and filled it up with snaps

And I've got some lovely pictures

Of the local girls and chaps

Now I've got a picture of the girl next door

In my little snapshot album

And I've never had a better snap before

In my little snapshot album

The night was dark and the hour was late

She was kissing her boy by the garden gate

Wouldn't she love to see page eight

In my little snapshot album

And I've got a picture of my old granddad

In my little snapshot album

He's over eighty but a real bad lad

In my little snapshot album

Although he's an old antique

He thinks he's still the village sheik

I've got him dancing cheek to cheek

In my little snapshot album

Now I've got a picture of the vicar's wife

In my little snapshot album

Chasing the Curate with a carving knife

In my little snapshot album

Now what he did was all in fun

But it's not the kind of thing that's done

I can see he pinched her hot 'cross bun

In my little snapshot album

And I've got a picture of a nudist camp

In my little snapshot album

All very jolly but a trifle damp

In my little snapshot album

There's uncle dick without a care

Discarding all his underwear

But his watch and chain still dangle there

In my little snapshot album
