George Warner : [the Projectionist's Song - verse 1] I am the very model of a modern film projectionist / And I can count upon one hand the changeovers that I have missed / At twenty four frames per second the pictures synchronise with sound / To give an image, oh so good, some call me a perfectionist / I scrub my lenses every day and clean the gate with cotton buds / I polish sprockets while they turn and smother them in super-suds / The reels and reels of celluloid my audiences have enjoyed / Give pleasure and excitement more than anyone can ever judge.
[chorus - Give pleasure and excitment...]
George Warner : [verse 2] Although my expertise is usually at it's pinnacle / Sometimes I get a film that's done the rounds and is quite terrible / If on opening I'm out of rack it means I have to take the flak from stuck up management and bosses really quite detestable.
[chorus - If on opening he's out of rack...]
