Smile for the camera, smile if you can
Give us a smile then again and again
In Middle East there is blood on the sand
The evening news showed the Arab’s dead hands
All God’s children go to Heaven
Come see the crowds, a parade in the street
Hear all the sounds, all the sights, the living
There was a man that they hung from a tree
They watched in the dark as he swung in the breeze
Swing low, sweet chariot
Sing something lovely, sing something we’ve heard
Tell us how we shall inherit the Earth
Fire came from heaven, devoured them all
Stretched out before us, a great lake of fire
Swing low, sweet chariot
Smile for the camera, smile if you can

I have been a listener of Luxury since ‘Amazing and Thank You’ Lee’s thoughtful lyrics the instrumentation and raw emotion have always drawn me to this band. So far on this album I enjoy One of Those Things (Or) The Temple. Great job! jason hendry
