Got Tropes

I'm sick and tired of movies starting Where there's a family moving And there's a sullen teen Who's a pain in the ass One of them sees something spooky No one believes them they think They're crazy Then they find out the house Has a suspect past You don't always have to do What's expected of you Have some balls Try something new Got tropes But we've seen them Got hope You won't need them Elevate your art Above the mundane Got tropes But they're old hat Got hope That you're better than that Take us on a journey Make us glad we came I'm sick and tired of movies ending With that thing we're always dreading Cos for a moment You think that the tale has been told That last scene is just deceitful Just a punt at getting a sequel Story didn't matter The franchise rights have been sold You don't always have to do What finance tells you to Have some balls And try something new Got tropes But we've seen them Got hope You won't need them Elevate your art Above the trite Got tropes But they're old hat Got hope That you're better than that Pull your fucking finger out and Give us a genuine fright Not everything has to be in a universe Not everything has to be in a universe Not everything has to be in a universe Not everything has to be in a universe Got tropes But we've seen them Got hope You won't need them Elevate your art With ghoulish pride Got tropes But they're old hat Got hope That you're better than that Pull us into to horror And out the other side
