			THE LATE SHOW

	Celluloid flight
	Past the photons so bright
	Bouncing into our eyes
	And our brains

	Celluloid night
	Fantasize wrong or right
	Live through the lies
	And the pains

	Celluloid stories surround us at night
	And they're beamed through the ceilings and floors
	Celluloid gongs send us reeling in fright
	But nobody's real at the doors.

	Celluloid day
	In white black and grey
	And red blue and green
	Through the room

	Celluloid may
	Come and save us today
	From reality seen
	Through the gloom.
