	"Drawing on lyrical, rhythmic, and melodic elements of the pop band Squeeze; then adding some beef, this song serves as an example of great pop music. It has all the elements. Good arrangement and production; great instrumentation featuring a cool funky bassline; great vocals; and to top it all off the song itself is chucked full of hooks." -- big ears, Sussex, Wisconsin

	Lyrics The Lens (C. McConnell) Through the lens the whites get whiter As the shot gets tighter and captures the light But it bends and the image is altered The memory falters and day becomes night Black becomes white And we fight and we fight Something ain't right Look at us, we used to be friends I don't know what you want from me 'Cuz you see what you want to see When you're looking through the lens Through the lens the past is rewritten To suit where your sitting when you're nearing the brink It depends on the color you're wearing The secrets your sharing or the drink that you drink The thoughts that you think When we fight and we fight Something ain't right Look at us, we used to be friends I don't know what you want from me 'Cuz you see what you want to see When you're looking through the lens You've been living in a fantasy world Your imagination is your best defense But when you drop you guard It hits you hard To see that where it starts is where it ends Through the lens Through the lens your pride grows smaller The tales grow taller and the lies become fact But you can't take them back When you discover that the lens is cracked
