Everyone’s Gone to the Movies Lyrics by Steely Dan

Katy Lied

1975

[Verse 1]
Kids if you want some fun
Mr. LaPage is your man
He's always laughing, having fun
Showing his films in the den
Come on, come on
Soon you will be eighteen
I think you know what I mean
Don't tell your mama
Your daddy or mama
They'll never know where you been
[Chorus]
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
[Verse 2]
Listen to what I say
He wants to show you the way
Right down the hallway with open arms
To teach you a new game to play
Come on, come on
Soon it will be too late
Bobbing for apples can wait
I know you're used to sixteen or more
Sorry we only have eight
[Chorus]
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
[Bridge]
Oh, babies come on
(Please) come on
[Verse 3]
Kids if you want some fun
See what you never have seen
Take off your cheaters
And sit right down
Start the projection machine
[Chorus]
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
Everyone's gone to the movies
Now we're alone at last
[Instrumental Outro]
