Murder at the Movies
Max had just come home from war
When he started acting different than he had before
The army will do that to you
Make you someone new
There's a job for folks like you with nothing else that they can do
Here take this picture and address and make sure not to leave a mess
Remember to cover up your face
Don't leave a trace
By the time ten men were dead, Max had a telly by his bed
It left his conscience with a dent, but hey, whatevs, it pays the rent
You want an off for groceries at the market
Find a new target
Max had been doing this for years
And he thought nothing could throw him
Until the day he was assigned to kill a man named Owen
He dealt some weed at a couple of parties
But he sold oregano to some guy named Marty
Now what he didn't know was Marty was crazy
He had connections with some girl named Daisy
Now Daisy was that girl who knew everybody
She also had an insane amount of money
So she hired Max to take care of Owen for them
So Max followed Owen home, but he wasn't home alone
He got closer to see what was going down
All while crouching to the ground
He shuffled with too much speed
And landed on the concrete
Owen saw him and invited him inside
He asked Max where he came and Max made up a lie
"I was on a run when I saw a party going on
I got distracted, lost my footing, and fell by your lawn"
Owen said, "Here, have a drink, forget about your run
We're going to the movies later, join us in the fun"
Owen sat next to Max in the car with the beer
Then he whispered something strange into his ear
You can get away with murder at the movies
The action on the screen could mask the gunshot and the screams
Isn't that so interesting
I find that interesting
They sat down in the back row
Quipped back and forth for the whole show
And Max hated to admit, but he was enjoying this a bit
More than he wanted to
There was nothing he could do
They exchanged numbers and they said they'd stay in touch
Max left the theater, hoping he'd not see Owen much anymore
They ended up going to the movies once a week
He liked it so much that he couldn't bring himself to speak up
Against it
And then he remembered
You could get away with murder at the movies
The action on the screen could mask the gunshot and the screams
Isn't that so interesting
I find that interesting
They were standing at concessions
When Max said he had a confession to make
And it made Owen take a step back
He said that he liked Owen more than any target he had had before
Now Owen didn't know what 'target' meant
But he went with it and then he went into the theater
They sat in the back row
They quipped for half the show
Then Max pulled Owen close
And shot him right above the nose
Killing, my friend, will take a toll
That's the day Max lost his soul
You can get away with murder at the movies
The action on the screen could mask the gunshot and the screams
Isn't that so interesting
I find that interesting
When he started acting different than he had before
