Brushfire fairytales                 -  Play Verse 1 – Through this
Itsy bitsy diamond wells                                           |
Big fat hurricanes                                                 |
Yellow bellied given names                                         |
Well shortcuts can slow you down                                   |
And in the end we're bound                                         |
To rebound off of we                                               |

Well dust off your thinking caps     -  Play Verse 2 – Through this
Solar powered plastic plants                                      |
Pretty pictures of things we ate                                  | 
We are only what we hate                                          |
But in the long run we have found                                 |
Silent films are full of sound                                    |
Inaudibly free                                                    |

Slow down everyone                   -  Play Chorus – Through this 
You're moving too fast                                           |
Frames can't catch you when                                      |
You're moving like that                                          |
 
Inaudible melodies                   -  Play Bridge – Through this 
Serve narrational strategies                                     |
Unobtrusive tones                                                |
Help to notice nothing but the zone                              |
Of visual relevancy                                              |
Frame-lines tell me what to see                                  |
Chopping like an axe                                             |
Or maybe Eisenstein should just relax                            |

Slow down everyone                  -  Play Chorus – Though this
You're moving too fast                                         |
Frames can't catch you when                                    |
You're moving like that                                        |
                                    -  Play Solo -

Well Plato's cave is full of freaks –  Play Interlude – Through this
Demanding refunds for the things they've seen                      |
I wish they could believe                                          |
In all the things that never made the screen                       |
And just slow down everyone         -  Play Chorus 2X – Through this
You're moving too fast                                             | 
Frames can't catch you when                                        |
You're moving like that                                            |                 Slow down everyone                                                 |
You're moving too fast                                             |
Frames can't catch you when                                        |
You're moving like that                                            |
Moving Too....                                                     |
