JOHN LUKE: Hey, let's catch the Saturday horror movie matinee.

BONNY: Okay.

HENRY: What's playing?

WAYNE: "I Was A Teenage Teenager" Ow-oo!

NATALIE NAN: We can't get in if Henry comes along. They'll think we're too young

JOHN LUKE: You gotta be older than you are, you gotta know know more than you know, you gotta dare more than you dare before anyone will let you into anywhere.

ALL: Be careful, listen to your friends...



GONE TO THE MOVIES (Henry)

Everyone's gone to the movies
They're never coming home
They've all forgotten they have me
And I'm alone

I have been reading my books
Through daylight has disappeared
I must have ruined my eyesight
Cause everything looks weird

Everyone's gone to the movies
They're never coming home
Twenty-five years form now
I will still be here alone
