sad movies

day and night we walk these aisles

in the same old movie show

and look for someone

to feel for a while. there's matinees on saturdays

when we sit in the velvet chairs

popcorn boxes fly through the air. sad movies

they make you cry

sad movies make you wonder why

you ever came. do something to me

don't make me wait

stab something through me

don't cry out the good things

that i appreciate. day and night we walk these aisles

in the same old movie show

and look for someone

to feel for a while

the light's go on

the movie's gone

and the manager's up there

he says he doesn't care

and we take our money back. sad movies

they make you cry

sad movies make you wonder why

you ever came.
