lyrics
A scholar and a farm boy
A camera and a lens
If you’d like to print black and white
I have some experience
I’ll book a room said the scholar
At the end of the corridor
To ensure no-one lets in light
We’ll have to lock the door
Something developing in the dark room
Red lights and fixative, such a heady mix
Hands in the dark, work magic tricks
Grains of silver fade to black
Too late to turn back
It fires me up said the scholar
When art meets chemistry
You can completely lose control
There are no guarantees
What first emerged from virgin white
Was viewed with trepidation
Breathing fast with racing hearts
A grainy revelation
Something developing in the dark room
Red lights and fixative, are a heady mix
Hands in the dark, work magic tricks
Grains of silver fade to black
Too late to turn back
Down a nape slips a glistening bead
Amonton’s Law contributing heat
Something developing in the dark room
Red lights and fixative, such a heady mix
Hands in the dark, work magic tricks
Grains of silver fade to black
Too late to turn back
