lyrics

Welcome to the rental shop
Welcome to the rental shop

And we keep stockin’ and we never stop
You want it we got it
From the best of Spock to Fester to
Argento’s Opera
And it’s never not in
We’re so glad that you stopped in
Rock wigs like Hedwig or Bach
With Bill and Ted in a mall
And a documentary wall
That’s probably 10 meters tall
There’s popcorn covered with salt
We got porn if you’re adult
But softcore hidden around
Like Lust, Caution with Tony Leung
Rewatch Face/Off, The Rock, or Bond if you’re into blowing up
Marty’s Wolf of Wall Street
or The Irishman if you’re into the slower stuff
Joan of Arc, Varda, Godard or Truffaut blow it up
Yo homie
You need a rec we’re gonna throw you one
Just be kind and rewind it yuh
after the credits roll is done

You are in a video store
You are in a video store

Lubitsch to Mamoulian
Kubrick to Leone and
Corbucci and Suzuki
These movies take you to newer lands
We recommend it (yeah)
Never pretentious (yeah)
It’s neverendin’ (yeah)
Just where our heads at (yeah)
It's Wong Kar Wai in a Slaughterhouse Five
those Hollywood lights or Hong Kong on fire
I could watch it all night
Press stop and rewind and watch it again
You’re strapped in
Ain’t no stopping the ride
Ask Ginger Rogers the time
swing down to Broadway in lights
Ishii Miike, Tarkovsky, Almodovar
Von Sternberg, Dietrich
Garbo, Garfield, Heathcliff
With Transformers over on the 80’s tv shelf
You need a hand we can reach it
Move in silence like Murnau, Melies, Micheaux
Spendin' afternoons with Maya
Then watch Freddy Got Fingered
It's all love for the silver screen
now baby what that TV do
uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh
and we here every week too
so don't you touch that dial bruh
we ain't skippin' the previews

You are in a video store
You are in a video store
