Lyrics:

well you look as good as me
but you're not quite as tall
and if you never get a job
you'll haunt the museum halls

let's have some fun
i don't know if there's someone more perfect for me
it's like i'm on a hidden camera show
and you could all be fooling me

all the clouds will rust and crumble
when we get to heaven
but i'll love you always and forever
like it's 1997

let's have some fun
i don't know if there's someone more perfect for me
we'll walk on through slush and snow
chasing skating dates that will never be

tell me you love me in your sleep

if i'd lost you in the reeds
i'd still have fallen hard

when summer's here
we'll stay up
'til there's nothing else our waking selves can say

tell me you love me in your sleep

This song began as a commission - http://www.songstowearpantsto.com/songs/hidden-camera-show/ - which I later rewrote into what you hear now. :)

  • I still have the original hidden camera show on my iPod (I have both cause I'm really cool) and I was wondering what made you change the lyrics in the rerelease for you album Summer?

  • @MewMewSilver i wanted to take some of the inside jokes out and replace them with sentiments that are a little more understandable to the general listener

  • What's the chords for this please? It's amazing! =D

  • @KaytieOBrien chords are in the description! :)

  • Is Hidden Camera Show the most favorited non-silly STWPT song? Its legacy seems to have far exceeded what it was commissioned for.

    Also woah, new album cover? Is this for the release under your own name and not "Your Heart"? Will there be a new special album for Autumn?

    PS I thought those were Duplos until I read your tweet.

  • @crash2455 Thanks for watching!

    HCS is up there but there is no doubt that this is the non-silly fan fave watch?v=zeKynkHIrgY

    Check andrewhuang.bandcamp. com for new Autumn and new general everything :)
