About the Movies

Figured it out before I'm a teen
Humming along the washing machine
Making some faces I made a scene
No one around to see how green
Run away, run away scream
I saddle my thoughts for the big machine

That is why, that's the way we watch the movies
In some silly way life begins to change
That's the way we watch the movies
In some silly way life begins to change for you

You're old enough, life begins to change
Lift up my fork and celebrate ease
Liquid enough, liquid it seems
Walking on pillows I learn how to sleep
Somehow I feel what flies seem to breathe
Run away, run away dream
I like all the flights on the big machine

That is why, that's the way we watch the movies
In some silly way life begins to change
That's the way we watch the movies
In some silly way life begins to change for you

You're old enough, life begins to break
Come on out, I've got a secret
Time will let you in
And if you want you can have a secret
Time will let you through

Come on out, you've gotta see it
Time to let you in
And if you want you can ride with me
If the wind is right the wind is free
I knew it then, I knew it well

Like a pilot diving down wishing well
I know it's better when the weather changes your hair
Fifteen paces a mile an hour, it's gotta feel good
Sucking a slurped for ultimate power

It's gotta feel good
Fighting, you're back when you feel like a coward
It's gotta feel good
And every thing's moving at the ultimate speed

Believe it that's the way we watch the movies
In some silly way life begins to change
You're older now
