The Lyrics
Dedicated to every couple with differing tastes in movies. Okay, fine, every couple.
I’m on the phone with my girlfriend, she's upset;
She's going off about Scarlet’s fight with Rhett--
(She doesn’t
Get guy humor like guys do…)
Down at the mall, it’s a CinePlex movie night;
I'd like to see a Woody Allen that doesn’t bite--
But she gets in
Line for tickets and buys two…
‘Cuz I like short works,
She likes features,
She loves musicals,
I'm into creatures,
Documentaries ‘bout some penguins are fine
But what we
Settle on makes me wish I were blind!
If she could see that I’m
The drunk at Sundance who
Voted for “Avatar” and at Cannes, too,
See?
It’s a long movie--
Stupid, long movie!
Stuck in these seats, I’m chewin’ her jelly beans--
An instant classic co-directed by Tom Green!
There’s another fart joke, thinkin’ to myself:
“Hey, isn’t this chee-eesy?”
A juvenile style with an overrated clown,
And even Ebert said it’s vile, gave it two thumbs down;
She says it’s awesome, got a fabulous cast--
So why’d it make me fall asleep so fast?
She loves NetFlix,
I love theaters,
She's more Apatow,
I'm kinda Spielberg,
Arguments on dates ev’ry weekend at nine
‘Bout what’s in-
Telligent ‘bout the filmic design!
If she could see that I’m
The one who understands this!
Who got his M.F.A. at ol’ U.S.C.???
It’s a long movie--
Frequently now, I’m slippin’ out the back door--
“Meet you outside the bathroom in lobby Three-ee-ee--“
It’s a long movie--
Stupid, long movie!
Oh, and those annual
Festivals drag on
Till the middle of the night--
I’m the one who starts to laugh
When she’s just about to cry!
I know she gets annoyed
When I deconstruct the themes
By consulting Jung or Freud;
I think I know what it means…
Can't she see that I'm
The one who understands this
As meta-cinematic apostasy-y-y?
And a long movie!
Give me Fellini, Bergman or Cocteau!
Anything by Truffaut or Bertolucci-i-i!
Not this long movie--
Stupid, long movie!
Has she ever seen my degree?
It’s in Film/T.V.!!!--
Stupid, long movie!
She's going off about Scarlet’s fight with Rhett--
(She doesn’t
Get guy humor like guys do…)
Down at the mall, it’s a CinePlex movie night;
I'd like to see a Woody Allen that doesn’t bite--
But she gets in
Line for tickets and buys two…

Welcome back, Bob! My all-time favorite amiright parody is your Y.O.G.A. - and this one is very good, too. ;D
Great whirl thru the world of guy/gal flick incompatibility
Excellently written
Extra verse dedicated to Old Man Ribber: "She loves action, I like geek-nerds/She's Greek Orthodox, I'm into bleep-words..."
Extra verse dedicated to AirFarceWon: "She likes chick flicks, I like violence/ She loved “Moulin Rouge”, I’d prefer silents..."
Extra verse dedicated to Phil Nelson: "She liked “Clueless,” I liked “Mean Girls,”/ She’s “Ms. Cabaret,” I’m “Mr. Dreamgirls”..." Thanks for your comments!
Hey, this totally explains my relationship! NO, I'm joking, I like my girlfriends taste of movies with the exclusion of a few (Sex and the City) 5's!
