Well Shourtcuts can... F# Well dust off your thinking caps B7 Solar powered plastic plants F# Pretty pictures of things we ate B7 We are only what we hate C#7 But in the long run we have found B7 Silent films are full of sound F# C#7 Inaudibly free F# Slow down everyone Bb You're moving too fast B Frames can't catch you when G# You're moving like that F# Inaudible melodies Bb Of narrational strategies B Unobtrusive tones G# Help to notice nothing but the zone F# Of visual relevancy Bb Frame-lines tell me what to see B Chopping like an axe G# So maybe Eisenstein should just relax F# Slow down everyone Bb You're moving too fast B Frames can't catch you when G# You're moving like that Guitar solo thingy:

F# Well Plato's cave is full of freaks Bb Demanding refunds for the things they've seen B I wish they could believe G# G In all the things that never made the screen F# And just slow down everyone Bb You're moving too fast B Frames can't catch you when G# You're moving like that F# Slow down everyone Bb You're moving too fast B Frames can't catch you when G# You're moving like that Move into (PLAY INTRO AS OUTRO PLUS ONE F# CHORD TO FINISH)
