The Lyrics

Based on a true story.
I, I went to the theater, I had never been there before, but turned in
How could a theater be so hard to find?
I, know why I bother, I want to see the movie
Can't find it, find it

I saw the sign, didn't see the movie theater, just the sign
Instead of parking, on my quest embarking
I saw the sign, couldn't find the movie theater, just the sign
Driving 'round the parking lot, get closer to the sign, but where is it
Oh, I just can't find it

I will soon see the moon, it's been an hour
Since I ventured in here
How could a theater be so hidden there?
I know it's open but I missed my showtime, no
It's a huge parking lot

I saw the sign, where is the dumb movie theater, there's the sign
Parking lot's double the size, I'm in trouble
I saw the sign, just about a thousand times, only see signs
Nobody knows where it is, so I'm drivin' around 'til I find it
Determined to find it, yeah yeah yeah

I saw the sign, and I'm wasting gas as I drive
And I'm not happy that I cannot find it, I'll leave it, yeah yeah yeah

I saw the sign, never saw the movie theater, just the sign
But I soon felt much better when I walked 'round the big shopping center

Just saw the sign, just saw the sign
Only saw signs
Where's the theater, where's the theater
I can't find it, I can't find it
Where could it be?
And I never found the dumb movie theater

The movie theater sign, but no movie theater? That is so weird! Are you sure that you didn't realize that it's a drive-in movie? Or maybe they must have taken the movie theater building down, unannounced? Yeah, what a trippy situation! Oh, well, here's a refund of $555. Yeah, what a ripoff!

Thanks Christie. I know it was a regular movie theater, found that out online. And it must've still been around as I saw showtimes for it that day. Just couldn't find it at all.

Reminds me of an episode of Seinfeld where they get lost in the mall (replacing the mall with the theater). Funny stuff.
