Song lyrics

We'll get ya ya ya
We'll get ya ya ya
(I am Michael Caine)

He's walking where I'm afraid I don't know
I see the firemen jumping from the windows,
There's panic and I hear somebody scream.
He picks up useless paper and puts it in my pocket,
I'm trying very hard to keep my fingers clean,
I can't remember, tell me what's his name
(My name is Michael Caine)

[Chorus:]
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep at home,
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep

The sun is laughing, it's another broken morning,
I see a shadow and call out to try and warn him,
He didn't seem to hear, just turned away.
The quiet fellow follows and points his finger straight at you,
He had to sacrifice his pride, yes, and throw it all away

His days are numbered, he walks round and round in circles,
There is no place he can ever call his own,
He seems to jump at the sound of the phone.
Staring out the window there's nothing he can now do,
All he wanted was to remain sane,
He can't remember his own name
(My name is Michael Caine)

[Chorus:]
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep at home,
And all I wanted was a word or photograph to keep
