[00:00.00]Larger Than Life - Evan Pappas
[00:09.44]Uncle Morty used to send me to the movies
[00:12.64]Here's a nickel kid cheer up and go
[00:16.88]And though I was only seven
[00:19.85]I discovered heaven
[00:24.22]At the R K O
[00:31.13]Blue lights
[00:33.02]Pink lights
[00:34.73]Stars in the ceiling
[00:38.55]An organ as big as a buick
[00:41.86]And a screen as tall as the great wall of China
[00:46.68]Red rugs gold stairs
[00:50.63]Porcelain angels
[00:53.91]And everything bigger and better and larger than life
[01:02.53]At first I was strictly a western man
[01:05.97]But then one saturday afternoon
[01:08.26]I saw defender of the crown
[01:10.89]Warner brothers 1941 technicolor starring Alan Swann
[01:18.74]Daring loyal kind but courageous
[01:26.28]A hero as big as a buick
[01:29.82]With a cape a sword and a bevy of maidens
[01:34.77]He was movies me I was seven
[01:42.75]And gee he was bigger and better and larger than life
[01:50.88]See life wasn't capes or flashing swords or parapets
[01:58.88]Life wasn't alan swann or Robin Hood
[02:06.54]Life was your father going out for cigarettes
[02:14.39]And deciding he was going out for good
[02:22.87]Here's a nickel kid cheer up and
[02:26.98]Go swann is playing at the R K O
[03:04.44]Sure it was possible
[03:06.29]If he met my mom in '34
[03:08.60]Maybe heat of link
[03:09.63]Whatever is cabana at the chateau mormont
[03:12.85]There is every reason to believe
[03:14.09]There could be the remove
[03:15.83]Pass it bill
[03:16.63]That the man who went out to the
[03:18.37]Chesterfields wasn't my real father at all
[03:22.30]I wasn't some stupid kid whose father
[03:24.56]Got tired or him and walked out
[03:27.64]I was the bastard son of Alan Swann
[03:34.38]Daring loyal kind but courageous
[03:41.76]A hero as big as I needed
[03:45.40]In the technicolor embrace of a maiden
[03:52.26]Swann my hero and possible father
[04:00.54]He stood and he fought and he never ran
[04:07.58]Oh no
[04:11.53]He was bigger
[04:14.12]And better
[04:15.58]And larger than life
[04:21.59]And he lived for me
[04:30.50]At the R K O
