The Projectionist

Lyrics

Don't move
 Don't speak
 Don't blink
 Just leave it up to me
 I got a mind and it's like a laser beam light
 Don't cry
 Or complain
 It's no use
 'Cause it's all the same
 Won't matter once I've got you in my sights
 Well you were living your life when I came along
 Never wondered if it was right or wrong
 You had a nice smile and a pretty face
 I unlatched my case
 I flicked the switch
 You heard a whir
 Surprised by what had just occurred
 You thought to run
 But something made you stay
 I'm the projectionist
 I lay the scene
 I shine my beam on your movie screen
 I've got some months or years to kill
 Just hold still you're gonna ruin the film
 I'm a perfectionist
 If I get it right
 I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
 And the dream will play
 As long as you can stay
 ♪
 What's that, you say?
 Hush now, don't matter anyway
 It's rude to argue while the movie plays
 You moved your lips but I couldn't hear
 With the soundtrack blaring in my ears
 I'm sorry if I don't know what you said
 If you don't move 'til the very end
 I'll want to play the film again
 If I do it will be hard to break away
 I'm the projectionist
 I lay the scene
 I shine my beam on your movie screen
 I've got some months or years to kill
 Just hold still you're gonna ruin the film
 I'm a perfectionist
 If I get it right
 I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
 The dream will play
 As long as you can stay
 Would it kill you to play along
 (Just sit there like you belong)
 Would it kill you to be
 (Part of my personal fantasy)
 Would it kill you to lie
 (Just lie there and smile like a blushing bride)
 It would make you interesting
 Probably more than you really are
 ♪
 I'm the projectionist
 I lay the scene
 I shine my beam on your movie screen
 I've got some months or years to kill
 Just hold still you're gonna ruin the film
 I'm a perfectionist
 If I get it right
 I'll wrap you up in a dream tonight
 And if it plays, you'll never get away
