The Lyrics

I like da movies, movies. I like da movies, movies. I like da movies, movies. I like da... MOVIES!

I'm a cinephile.
Most guys would scold my square-shaped eyes.
I'm a cinephile.
Except for Jaws II.
I'm a cinephile.
Yeah, I'll attend all films shown, then each again.
I'm a cinephile.
Got slimy-soled shoes.

I've spent weeks in wide-screen cinema!
I stock up on chips and ice-cream!
Eat popcorn; breakfast, lunch and dinner!
I've watched those elves two hundred screens!

I'm a cinephile.
At matinees I'll buy dozens of tickets, yeah.
I'm a cinephile.
The movie seats have white felt. So swell, yeah.
I'm a cinephile.
"The light's poor and acting sucks? You aficionado fool!"
I'm a cinephile.
I come equipped for each premiere and final shoot!

I've spent weeks in hi-fi cinema!
I flocked to Harry Potter 3!
(Well, once the censors had un-"M'ed it!)
Lord of the Onion Rings, I am!

A buff for reels, OK?
A prequel? Hip hooray!
The cost will fleece your pay!

I'm a cinephile.
It's where I hooked up, my first date.
I'm a cinephile.
(I yelled out "Tim Curry!")
I'm a cinephile.
Silver screen all day as candy feeds my face.
I'm a cinephile.
Oh, I'm a platinum member, so have my own space!

I've spent weeks in night-time cinema!
I suck cups of raspberry freeze, yummy! Eyes glowing green!
A devotee of films, who wants to
See it compressed on DVD?

I'm a cinephile.
Most guys would scold my square-shaped eyes.
I'm a cinephile.
Guess my eyes are starry.

Wow...not only was I pleased to see a Staind parody, but I was amazed at how creative and funny this was. You did it perfectly...and with no lines from the OS. Great job, Jake. All 5's-plus.

Excellent job on this OS Luke. View these 5s ( not much of a movie ).
