about

lyrics

Time out of time
My mind’s wide open now
To the rhapsody of tunes
From the picture theatre glory days.

Intermission
Herb Alpert and The Shadows play
Teenagers pash and someone let some Jaffas go
Snaredrum rolls: God Save the Queen
Wild West Coast rebels sit it out
Technicolour Looney Tunes
Young wide-eyes watch the magic show

Henry Mancini
With film-score genius novelty
There nothing so fine
As those full-size orchestral tones
Then came Space Odyssey
I got thrown out for climbing under seats
Was I too young
Or did that movie move too slow?

Measure up to infinity
Try standing aside from the tyranny
March in time
Never worry, never wait
No winding queues at Heaven’s gate
