When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of edu---cation
Hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, Oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

Kodachrome ~ Paul Simon

Okay, so it's more than 8 words, but it's such an unschooly song I couldn't resist!

Time it was, oh what a time it was,
A time of innocence, a time of confidences.

Long ago, far away, I have a photograph,
Preserves the memory, that's all you left me.

Something also by Paul Simon (and Art Garfunkel) from way back, don't have a clue what it's called.

Wishing - A Flock of Seagulls
"If I had a photograph of you,
or something to remind me,
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing"

Look at this photograph
Every time I do it makes me laugh
How did our eyes get so red
And what the hell is on Joey's head

Photograph ~ Nickelback

An old photograph torn and tattered and stained
Fading to yellow in a brown leather frame

Photograph- I don't want your
Photograph- I don't need your
Photograph- All I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough.

~Def Leppard, "Photograph"

"Something also by Paul Simon (and Art Garfunkel) from way back, don't have a clue what it's called."

Apparently, it's the Bookends Theme from the 1968 album Bookends and the correct lyrics are:

Time it was and what a time it was, it was
A time of innocence, a time of confidences.

Long ago it must be, I have a photograph
Preserve your memories, they're all that's left you.

I was close. :)

"What'll I do with just a photograph to tell my troubles to?
When I'm alone with only dreams of you that won't come true,
What'll I do?"

---Linda Ronstadt

But all I've got is a photograph,
And I realize you're not coming back anymore
