Don't Want To Pay - Darren Hanlon

The doors to the cinema

Are open for the taking

Like a cat on a mouse

I’m ready to pounce

Before my nerve starts breaking

And if I’m caught by the ticket collector

I promise I will always respect her

She might be feeling like her job

Is like that out of date ticket stub

And I get a thrill

I just take on seat that Hollywood couldn’t fill

Because I don’t want to pay

No, I don’t want to pay

When there’s no-one on the door

You won’t see me anymore

Because I don’t want to pay

It’s not an exercise in saving money

I don’t do it to impress my friends

I do it to start that thing in my heart

That fills me with adrenalin

Cause I’m a rebel without a ticket

Yeah, I’m a matinee mutineer

How can you know what I’m searching for

Till you feel that post-sneak euphoria

And I get a thrill

If only for the want of time to kill

Because I don’t want to pay

No, I don’t want to pay

When there’s no one on the door you won’t see me anymore

Because I don’t want to pay

No I don’t want to pay

It’s not the size of your budget

But what you do with it that counts
