Ray Davies - The Video Shop lyrics

The local factory's been pulled down By an overseas corporation Now all of my brothers are looking around For alternative occupation I was sitting by the telly with my brother, Kenny When suddenly the penny dropped While all of my brothers are sitting at home I've got a bank loan and I've opened up my very own Video shop Video shop At the video shop I can fly, fly you away Comedy and tragedy are all sitting on my shelf And if you've got a fantasy For a small rental fee You can set yourself free At my video shop At my video shop At the video shop I can fly, fly you away At the video shop Let me fly, fly you away From all of the depression in you head Caused by all the living in the red I've got a bootleg version of Citizen Kane A second hand copy of Psycho I've taped them off the telly so you shouldn't complain And there's no guarantee you'll get your money back again From my video shop My video shop If you want to escape, I can rent you a tape To relieve your situation If you feel a bit low, I got a good peep show 'Cos everybody knows almost anything goes At my video shop At my video shop One fifty a day and I'll fly, fly you away It's nothing to pay to fly far, far away I can help you through that lonely night I've got Technicolour, black and white I can guide you through those empty days Make you smile and take your blues away O let me fly you away At my video shop Fly, fly you away Another factory's been knocked down But nobody ever complains And all of my brothers are customers now We all play video games I can see it in the eyes of all the lonely wives If they're bored and they feel like a change I do sales, rentals, even a swop And if you feel like a change, well it can all be arranged At my video shop At my video shop At my video shop At my video shop Let me fly, fly you away And everyone who walks in through that door Has got something that they're looking for At my video shop At my video shop At the video shop I can fly, fly you away At the video shop Let me fly, fly you away Oh, at the video shop Oh, at the video shop Oh, at the video shop
