Procol Harum Lyrics

"The Thin End Of The Wedge"

Picture (rush) (picture), story (hush) (story)
Picture (rush) (picture), story (hush) (story)

Got the picture, got the rush
Got the story, got the hush
Got the joker, got the flush
Got the choker, got the crush

(Picture, story) got the wrong side of the bed
Got the wrong slice of the spread
Got the thin end of the wedge
Took the wrong bend on the edge

Picture (picture) (screen), movie (picture) (movie) (dream)
Picture (picture) (screen), movie (picture) (movie) (dream)

Got the picture, got the screen
Got the movie, got the dream
Got the makeup, got the seam
Got the wake-up, got the screen

(Picture, story) got the wrong side of the bed
Got the wrong slice of the spread
Got the thin end of the wedge
Took the wrong bend on the edge

Picture, story
Picture, movie
Picture, story
Picture, movie
