Out at the Pictures Lyrics

It's on every street,
It's fuckin' cheap,
Sometimes you find up in your mind...

Are you at the pictures,
Or out at sea?
It's better this way,
Trust you, believe me

Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(There's a whole world in there)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(Just don't stop and stare)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(You will find gel there)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(There's a hole in the world there)

We like it for what we just got,
It's better still,
It's something hot

Out at the pictures,
I cannot see,
It's better this way,
Trust you, believe me

Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(There's a whole world in there)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(Just don't stop and stare)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(You will find gel there)
Whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-whe-the-weather weather weather weather
(There's a hole in the world there)
