《Buffalo Nickel Photoplay， Inc.》歌词

[00:00:00] Anyone can get lucky in america

[00:00:02] I remind myself of this everyday

[00:00:06] The first nickel i ever earned

[00:00:10] I keep in a little silver frame

[00:00:12] It's how i gave my company a name

[00:00:14] Reminding me how very far i came

[00:00:21] I was a

[00:00:24] Maker of the silhouettes

[00:00:25] Who made a small improvement-

[00:00:26] A little book of silhouettes

[00:00:28] That simulated movement

[00:00:29] Well people seemed to like it

[00:00:31] Soon the money's going clink

[00:00:32] And i'm buffalo nickel photoplay inc

[00:00:36] I go from

[00:00:37] Silhouettes to photos

[00:00:39] I invent a small projector

[00:00:41] And soon i'm making movies

[00:00:42] And they're calling me director

[00:00:44] An industry is dawning

[00:00:45] And i'm standing on the brink-

[00:00:46] Mister buffalo nickel photoplay inc

[00:00:50] Life shines from the shadow screen

[00:00:53] Comical yet infinitely true

[00:00:56] People love to see what people do

[00:00:59] Here where everyone is someone new

[00:01:02] Such tales from the shadow screen

[00:01:05] Little men who never get the breaks

[00:01:09] Fighting on till something fin'lly takes-

[00:01:12] What a lovely movie it all makes

[00:01:18] Well business is booming

[00:01:20] I'm happy to say

[00:01:21] I just made a contract

[00:01:23] To film for pathe

[00:01:24] A series of chapters

[00:01:26] That end in suspense-

[00:01:27] Each week see what's next

[00:01:29] For another five cents

[00:01:32] And i am

[00:01:33] Waking every morning

[00:01:34] Filled with such anticipation

[00:01:36] I frame the sea

[00:01:37] I frame the sky

[00:01:38] And this is my vacation

[00:01:39] I shake your hand

[00:01:40] I kiss your hand

[00:01:41] I buy you all a drink

[00:01:42] And maybe if you chance to see

[00:01:52] Of silhouette and flicker book

[00:01:53] And movies as they're meant to look

[00:01:56] And buffalo nickel photoplay inc
