Bad Self Portraits Lyrics
I bought this camera to take pictures of my love
Now that he's gone, I don't have anybody to take pictures of.
A lonesome highway is a pretty good subject
I'm gonna make myself make use of this stuff.
I'm taking landscapes
I'm taking still-lives.
I'm taking bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman.
I've spent my life so lost on loving,
I could have been a painter or a president!
But after twenty-five years, I should be good at something!
Gone are the days of me being so reticent.
I'm taking night classes,
I'm making sculptures,
I'm painting bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman!
I bought this camera to take pictures of my love
Now that he's gone I don't know what to do with this stuff.
I don't care about the time or money
I just never thought that I'd be through with this love
Stuck taking landscapes,
Stuck taking still-lives,
Stuck making sculptures,
I'm out here taking bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman!
Bad self portraits of a lonely girl!
Sad self portraits of a lonely woman
Now that he's gone, I don't have anybody to take pictures of.
A lonesome highway is a pretty good subject
I'm gonna make myself make use of this stuff.
I'm taking still-lives.
I'm taking bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman.
I could have been a painter or a president!
But after twenty-five years, I should be good at something!
Gone are the days of me being so reticent.
I'm making sculptures,
I'm painting bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman!
Now that he's gone I don't know what to do with this stuff.
I don't care about the time or money
I just never thought that I'd be through with this love
Stuck taking still-lives,
Stuck making sculptures,
I'm out here taking bad self portraits
Of a lonely woman!
Bad self portraits of a lonely girl!
Sad self portraits of a lonely woman
