In the Cinema...

Yeah... the cinema is where the magic comes alive! But my brain is flatlining at the box office... A quirky indie romance fights a battle in my mind Against a fantasy epic where the heroes survive And my brain is melting down, leaving logic behind. The neon sign is buzzing right into my eyes The girl behind the counter just sighed for the third time I’m clutching my wallet, stuck in this liminal space Oh lord, the movie starts in a minute, and choosing feels like a crime! Oh my God, which ticket should I buy? Watch the wizard levitate or watch the couple cry? A quiet French comedy where they smoke in the dark? Or a spandex superhero destroying a park? Student discount in my pocket, completely split in two! Do I pick the indie art, or the CGI crew? The romance has that actor with the sad puppy eyes The one who plays a yellow ukulele in the rain The epic has a dragon that clumsily flies But Twitter said the visuals are totally insane. "Do you want the mega-combo with the plastic hero cup?" The usher is judging my oversized fleece I just want a screenplay to cheer myself up And give my boring Saturday a little bit of peace. Twenty minutes of trailers... is there time to regret? If I flip a shiny coin, will fate take the wheel? I love magical swords, but I also love to sweat Watching gorgeous actors pretend that they can feel! Oh my God, which ticket should I buy? Watch the wizard levitate or watch the couple cry? A quiet French comedy where they smoke in the dark? Or a spandex superhero destroying a park? Student discount in my pocket, completely split in two! Do I pick the indie art, or the CGI crew? I finally bought the romance just to look a little smart... But I took a wrong turn right at the very start. Now I'm watching singing elves, the popcorn is all gone The seat leans back, the AC freezes me to the bone... Whatever, in the dark, everything turns out alright. The best part of the movies... ...is the extra butter in the night.
