Video Shop

lyrics

I'll meet you down Shantalla Road
At the Video Shop
Where flesh is bared and heads explode
At the Video Shop
We see the girls all passing by
But there's no clubbing for you and I
Cos we choose Buckaroo Banzai and the Video Shop

There was the strangest kind of silence
In the Video Shop
As we perused the sex and violence
Of the Video Shop
Between the sci-fi and the horror
Two boys with no school tomorrow
How many nightmares can we borrow
From the Video Shop?

There's something funny going on
With the Video Shop
I turned around and it was gone
The Video Shop
Who'll keep the monsters in their place?
Chucky, Freddy, Michael Myers and Jason?
Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Took the Video Shop!

Remember when we were all so scared
Of all the nasties lurking there, now
Videodrome is everywhere
But the Video Shop
Videodrome is in the air
Not the Video Shop
You'll never get it back in there
Not the Video Shop
