Ah click click,
Ah click click

I've been checking you up
I've been tracking you down
Funny all the things that I've found
Was it any surprise, didn't you realise, I must apologise
(It doesn't matter any more) to you
('Cause everything you tell me is boring)
Nothings gonna throw me now
(It doesn't matter what I say) to you
'Cause you've got that look in your eyes
The camera never lies

My camera never lies
So I'll put you in the picture and cut it down to size
(My camera oh oh)
My camera never lies anymore
'Cause there's nothing worth lying for
(My camera never lies)
There's nothing worth lying for
(My camera never lies)
My camera never lies anymore

Try to cover the trail, try to head for the line
Wonder why you're wasting your time
With another disguise â??cos there's no compromise
When the negative is dry
(It doesn't matter what I do) for you
('Cause every time you take me I'm sleeping)
You're never gonna shake me now
(It doesn't matter how I try) for you
(I can see by the look in your eyes)
(The camera never lies)

My camera never lies
So I'll put you in the picture and cut it down to size
(My camera oh oh)
My camera never lies anymore
'Cause there's nothing worth lying for
(My camera never lies)
There's nothing worth lying for
(My camera never lies)
My camera never lies anymore

(Ah click click, ah click click)
My camera, my camera, my camera never lies
Lies oh, oh, oh, oh
My camera never lies anymore
â??Cos there's nothing worth lying for

My camera never lies
So I'll put you in the picture and cut it down to size
(My camera oh oh)
My camera never lies anymore â??cos there's nothing worth lying
Nothing worth lying, nothing worth lying for

My camera never lies anymore (My camera never lies)

Bucks Fizz is an English pop group who achieved success in the 1980s, most notably for winning the 1981 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Making Your Mind Up".
