| 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
|
| Because it’s all the same
|
| Won’t matter once I got you in my sight
|
| 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 word
|
| Surprised by what had just occurred
|
| You thought to run
|
| But something made you stay
|
| I’m the projectionist
|
| I lay the scene
|
| Shine my beam on your movie screen
|
| I 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 say
|
| 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
|
| Shine my beam on your movie screen
|
| I 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
|
| 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 let it … spark blushing bride
|
| It would make you interesting
|
| Probably more than you really are
|
| I’m the projectionist
|
| I lay the scene
|
| Shine my beam on your movie screen
|
| I 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 |
