"Stanley In I Love The Movies" lyrics
"Stanley In I Love The Movies"
I love the movies
When I was a boy, I dreamed of being in the movies
At nine years old, I saw Errol Flynn riding
On a white horse down Main Street, Dodge City
He was a madman
He did bad things in those Robin Hood tights
Things that made my eyes go crazy
I love the movies
The ballet of cowboys and Indians
The audience fanatical, fickle, faithful
I have seen the stage sets and stormed the studios
I rode that wild horse, man
And I have seen the light
And the light said to me, "Are movies the greatest game in the world, man?"
And I said, "Yes, light, they are!
Except for football!"
Nice footwork, let's do it
