Songtexte Got To Get Your Photo In The Press - George Formby

Each evening in the paper a picture you will see
Of somebody or other who is famous as can be
We all have our ambitions, to break into the news
So now I′m going to give you my views
If you want to get your photo in the press
You must be different some kind of way
Individuality plus personality, is what you need today
I met a girl the other night, her name was Martha Hudd
She'd lost her teeth, she wore a wig, one leg was made of wood
She said there′s not much of me dear, but what there is is good
So they should have put her photo in the press
If you want to get your photo in the press
You must be different some kind of way
Individuality plus personality, is what you need today
Twas Christmas in the workhouse and the pudding got the bird
What shall I do, the master cried, then one chap, so I heard
Just stood upon the table and he never said a word
But they're going to put his photo in the press
If you want to get your photo in the press
You must be different some kind of way
Individuality plus personality, is what you need today
The stork paid us a visit, so I called in Doctor Lumm
He told me that my wife had twins, the room began to hum
Then he said I'll slip upstairs again in case there′s more to come
Ee, I nearly got my photo in the press
If you want to get your photo in the press
You must be different some kind of way
Individuality plus personality, is what you need today
Lately I′ve become well known, I'm sure you′ll understand
It happened down at Blackpool with some ladies on the sand
They found me with my little ukulele in my hand
And they're going to put my photo in the press
