[Intro – Camera Click, Swing Piano] Step right up, folks! Lovely day for a photograph! Everybody squeeze together! One, two, three... cheese! [Verse 1] Mr. Parker takes your picture, Every Sunday after church. Makes the little children giggle, Makes the grown-ups stand up straight! Mother's wearing Sunday ribbons, Father's got his Sunday tie. Everybody looks so happy, Not a single blinking eye! [Pre-Chorus – Finger Snaps] Stand up tall! Chin up high! Keep that twinkle in your eye! [Chorus – Barbershop Harmonies] Smile for the camera! One, two, three! Everybody's looking lovely, Just as lovely as can be! Hold it steady, hold it tight, Everything will turn out right! Click-click, flash-flash, there you are! Everybody is a star! [Instrumental – Clarinet, Tap Rhythm] [Verse 2] Mrs. Miller brought her portrait, Said her husband wasn't there. But he's standing right beside her, With his fingers in her hair! Little Tommy found a stranger In his birthday photograph. Mother said she'd never met him, Mr. Parker had to laugh! [Spoken – Cheerfully] Oh, don't you worry! The pictures know best! [Chorus] Smile for the camera! One, two, three! Everybody's looking lovely, Just as lovely as can be! Hold it steady, hold it tight, Everything will turn out right! Click-click, flash-flash, there you are! Everybody is a star! [Bridge – Gentle Crooning] Some old faces fade away, Some new faces come to stay. Every picture tells a tale, And photographs can never fail. [Spoken – Warmly] Oh, Mrs. Miller? Your husband's looking much better now! [Instrumental – Whistling, Piano] [Final Chorus – Exuberant] Smile for the camera! One, two, three! Everybody's where they ought to be, In our lovely family! Hold it steady, hold it tight, Everything will turn out right! Click-click, flash-flash, there you are! Just the way you really are! [Outro – Slowing Piano] Here's your picture, Mrs. Brown! Such a lovely family gown! [Spoken – Delighted] Oh, who's that missing? Why, nobody, dear! Nobody at all! [Camera Click]
