Family Snapshot Lyrics - Plays Live - Peter Gabriel

The streets are lined with camera crews 

Everywhere he goes is news 

Today is different 

Today is not the same 

Today, I'll make the action 

Take snapshot into the light 

Snapshot into the light 

I'm shooting into the light 

Four miles down, the cavalcade moves on 

Driving into the sun 

If I worked it out right 

They won't see me or the gun 

Two miles to go, they're clearing the road 

And the cheering has really begun 

I've got my radio 

I can hear what's going on

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I've been waiting for this 

I have been waiting for this 

All you people in TV land 

I will wake up your empty shells 

Peak-time viewing blown in a flash 

As I burn into your memory cells 

'Cause I'm alive 

They're coming round the corner with the bikers at the front 

I'm wiping the sweat from my eyes 

It's a matter of time 

It's a matter of will 

And the governor's car is not far behind 

He's not the one I've got in mind 

'Cause there he is 

The man of the hour 

Standing in the limousine 

Photos 

I don't really hate you 

I don't care what you do 

We were made for each other, me and you 

I want to be somebody 

You were like that, too 

If you don't get given, you learn to take 

And I will take you 

Holding my breath 

Release the catch 

And I let the bullet fly 

All turned quiet 

I have been here before 

A lonely boy hiding behind the front door 

Friends have all gone home 

There's my toy gun on the floor 

Come back, Mom and Dad 

You're growing apart 

You know that I'm growing up sad 

I need some attention 

I shoot into the light
