This Is Not a Photograph Lyrics
This is not a photograph - no
(This is not a photograph)
And these are not the Elysian Fields
(This is not a photograph)
This is not a bigot's head - no
(This is not a photograph)
(This is not a photograph)
This is just a perpendicular line to the grain
(This is not a photograph)
This wants to be outside the cage of the age
(This is not a photograph)
This is not a bigot's leg
(This is not a photograph)
(This is not a photograph)
(This is not a photograph)

(This is not a photograph)
(This is not a photograph)
(This is not a photograph)

could be saying that they don't want songs to be treated as simple snapshots of a band, putting them in a neat punk/post-punk category ("this wants to be outside the cage of an age")
so good
