Outro sample lifted from Michael Mann’s Heat, 1995

lyrics

I’ve been thinking, and spending all my time
Watching movies
With Al Pacino and Robert De Niro
Starship Troopers and Terminator 2
It’s probably the third time I’ve seen Terminator 2 this month
But it’s still… intense
I still get so hype when Arnie says
H a s t a l a v i s t a b a b y
Now I’m watching Gary Oldman in this French film
He’s a cop, and he is HIGH ON L I B R I U M
And I remember the time…
We watched Dracula
With him and Keanu
1992, BABY
I don’t think you’d like this one very much, because
Because, because
It’s too… r i s q u é
No, it would not be like that time that we watched DracuuLLAA
1 9 9 2 B A B Y Ÿ
Ohh but it fEels soo wrooong…
To be sharing the Lycans with her
And pretending she’s you
I’m pretending she’s YOU, baby
I wish she was u
Because…
She never complains about all the crazy violence
Or the unhinged behavior of these fictional men
The ones I seem to find myself enamored with most of the time
PATRICK BATEMAN, TONY MONTANA, NORMAN STANSFIELD
And there’s another one…
His naame escApes me aat the mœment
‘Cause I’m stuck on Scarface
TONY MONTANA, AL PACINO
Did you know he was 42 when they filmed that movie?
You couldn’t tell!
So this is where I live now
Hehe
And this is where I hang my head when I’m alone
And today I’ve got some company to keep
But you KNOW that it’s not the same!
‘Cause she’s so pristine
And she treats me so
…niice
Though she loves me and speaks to me tenderly
She is nottt uuuuuu
She’s not ü, not ü
She’s better than you
She’s so much fucking better than you
But something ugly in my head
Just won’t allow me to
Watch my movies without thinking of you
