| The Life of A Filmaker Why is it fun? To sit in a hot room With dizzy, tired eyes Cramps in your hands So much on your mind If it isn�t perfect, start over again I hate to say, �no, I�ll use my idea, friend� Working alone for hours on end Very few breaks but many brain bends Input � output you must never mistake Though it seems there isn�t anything at stake If the picture addressed to a million waiting eyes Isn�t just perfect, I�d choose to die Make them laugh, make them smile and then make them cry Make them think for themselves, make their minds stretch and fly You�re counting on you, and nobody more To make entertainment like never before When your eyes are open its never a bore If the audience feels, for you, it�s a score With a click and a twist, this piece here, that piece there You weave your own dream, with ever so much care The credit with no one else you will share For you took your challenge, starred in your own dare There�s some motion, some dreamlike, and (often deeper) some stilled A film that in the end you will sigh and get chills For mental strength and creativeness, personal will The outcome is good: destiny is fulfilled. |
