Polaroid by the band Elk. Find us here: www.myspace.com/elkpdx or www.youtube.com/elkpdx “Polaroid” is a VideoSong, a new medium with two rules: 1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice, although the audio sync may be a few milliseconds off). 2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds). Lyrics: This time we’ll close our eyes and feel the oceans growing under The street signs, the lamp lights, they color the puddles that climb up our legs And they feel so nice And it feels so right The sky is dark the rainclouds are threatening to pour but they hold off as Your lips part can you hear my heart from my toes to my ears, God it’s beating so hard And we feel so far My lips, your teeth, the stars Your shoes are on, my coat is drawn around your shoulders and that’s where it stays til You start to yawn, this ticking is a song as the clock counts down til we’re at peace with God And these streets are where I belong We’re here, we’re there, we’re gone. All I need is a Polaroid and a picture frame and I will catch you in the act All I need is a loud noise and a flash of light and I will never need to fight to get you back. PS Thanks to Stephanie Stromberg for playing cello! PPS Thanks to Pomplamoose for giving this kind of video/song a name. VideoSong, how about that… PPPS I wrote this song for my girlfriend Lizzie and my six month anniversary. What what!
