(Van Morrison)



What's wrong with this picture?

There's something I'm not seeing here

What's wrong with this picture?

Something that's not exactly clear

What's wrong with this picture?

Does it look like it's just another sting?

'Cos it don't mean a thing

If it ain't got that swing and ring a ding ding



What's wrong with this picture?

Doesn't anybody see

That's who everyone thought

That I used to be

What's wrong with this picture?

It's only hanging on a wall

So you can go right back to sleep

And just forget about it all, because



I'm not that person anymore

I'm living in the present time

Baby, don't you understand

I've left all that jive behind



You can't believe what you read in the papers

Or half the news that's on TV

Or the gossip of the neighbours

Or anyone who doesn't want you to be free



I'm not that person anymore

I'm always living in the present time

Don't you understand

I left all that jive behind



What's wrong with this picture?

It's only hanging on the wall

Why don't we take it down and
