Movie

We walk in

We walk out

And look at each other when the other’s not looking

Trying to sniff it out

Three hours later leaving the cinema

We look at each other when the other’s not looking

Thinking

was that waste of time

a sign of things to come

We go home

and sit down

I didn’t think it was so bad

but now I’m coming round

and I’m ready for a fight

for a haphazard dinner

which I thought was alright too

But not according to you,

disappointed by the premature night time

So now we fight about the lost afternoon

and bookend it

with something we’ve seen several times,

a safe bet

But in the shadows and glow

we look at each other

when the other’s not looking

We look at each other

when the other’s not looking

We look at each other

when the other’s not looking

We look at each other

when the other’s not looking

thinking
