The doors to the cinema are open for the taking Like a cat on a mouse, I'm ready to pounce Before my nerve starts breaking And if I'm caught by the ticket collector I promise I will always respect her She might be feeling like her job Is like that out-of-date ticket stub And I get a thrill I just take one seat that Hollywood couldn't fill Because I don't want to pay No, I don't want to pay When there's no-one on the door You won't see me anymore Because I don't want to pay It's not an exercise in saving money I don't do it to impress my friends I do it to start that thing in my heart That fills me with adrenalin 'Cause I'm a rebel without a ticket Yeah, I'm a matinee mutineer How can you know what I'm searching for Until you feel that post-sneak euphoria? And I get a thrill If only for the want of time to kill Because I don't want to pay Yeah, I don't want to pay When there's no-one on the door You won't see me anymore Because I don't want to pay No I don't want to pay It's not the size of your budget But what you do with it that counts
