Lyrics -
Now Im a young inventor
A chap with good ideas
Ive built myself a camera
It took me years and years
Its 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 Ive got some lovely photos
Of the local girls and chaps
Now, Ive got a picture of the girl next door
In my little snapshot album
Ive 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
Wouldnt they blush to see page eight
In my little snapshot album
Ive got a picture of my old granddad
In my little snapshot album
Hes over eighty but a real bad lad
In my little snapshot album
Although hes an old antique
He thinks hes still the village sheik
Ive got him dancing cheek to cheek
In my little snapshot album
Ive got a picture of the vicars wife
In my little snapshot album
Chasing the Curate with a carving knife
In my little snapshot album
What he did was all in fun
But its not the kind of thing thats done
I can see he pinched her hot-cross bun
In my little snapshot album
And Ive got a picture of a nudist camp
In my little snapshot album
All very jolly but a trifle damp
In my little snapshot album
Theres Uncle Dick without a care
Discarding all his underwear
But his watch and chain still dangles there
In my little snapshot album
