Carmike Cinemas Lyrics by JETT MORTON

Proof of Concept

2023

[Intro]
Aye yo
Lately, I been thinkin’ back to when I used to work at my favorite job, the movie theatre
Check it
[Verse 1]
It was way back in the day I used to work
Barely makin’ over minimum wage
Sellin’ popcorn and movie tickets
With a bunch of homies and some bad bitches
So many stories I been dyin’ to share
I remember when I started workin’ there
I was awkward, my hands constantly in my pockets
One year in, FallFest was approachin’
The manager forced me to go with my friends
I got the night off, I saw Macklemore
And I had a good timе, but what’s more important
I broke out of my shell, and I hung around morе
And sure, more antics ensued in no time
After work, we had wars with Nerf guns
The cinema became a battleground
To this day, I swear there’s a few stray
Nerf darts in that bitch floatin’ around
[Chorus]
Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin’
Ain’t never gonna have a job like that again
Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was
Workin’ at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah
Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin’
Ain’t never gonna have a job like that again
Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was
Workin’ at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah
[Verse 2]
We got a new safe and the combination was sittin’ on top on a piece of paper
So naturally, instead of keepin’ numbers on the d-low
We practiced bein’ safecrackers after some C notes
The mall after hours sure was something to behold
The leftover Subway cookies something to eat, yo
But our favorite pastime? Exploring the rooftops
We’d toss bowling balls off that bitch and do shots
I brought up Big Bertha and a bucket of golf balls
A makeshift driving range on top of the damn mall
We was watchin’ movies before they came out and shit
I once found a five-dollar bill that was counterfeit
We did what we wanted at the easiest job in the whole entire world
Every restaurant in town gave us food on the house
We would stay late playin’ GTA on the big screen; every kid’s dream
Speakin’ of kids, the teens used to sneak in
We’d have to remind them the movies are only for payin’ customers
We can’t just let everybody in for free, I mean; haha
[Outro]
For real though, we; we really did let everybody in for free
I swear the whole town either knew the manager or one of us who worked there
So yeah, you know we; we didn’t charge ‘em, you know, we just; we just let ‘em in
[Chorus]
Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin’
Ain’t never gonna have a job like that again
Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was
Workin’ at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah
Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin’
Ain’t never gonna have a job like that again
Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was
Workin’ at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah
