Carmike Cinemas Lyrics

Aye yo

Lately, I been thinkin' back to when I used to work at my favorite job, the movie theatre

Check it

It was way back in the day I used to work

Barely makin' over minimum wage

Sellin' popcorn and movie tickets

With a bunch of homies and some bad bitches

So many stories I been dyin' to share

I remember when I started workin' there

I was awkward, my hands constantly in my pockets

One year in, FallFest was approachin'

The manager forced me to go with my friends

I got the night off, I saw Macklemore

And I had a good time, but what's more important

I broke out of my shell, and I hung around more

And sure, more antics ensued in no time

After work, we had wars with Nerf guns

The cinema became a battleground

To this day, I swear there's a few stray

Nerf darts in that bitch floatin' around

Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin'

Ain't never gonna have a job like that again

Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was

Workin' at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah

Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin'

Ain't never gonna have a job like that again

Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was

Workin' at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah

We got a new safe and the combination was sittin' on top on a piece of paper

So naturally, instead of keepin' numbers on the d-low

We practiced bein' safecrackers after some C notes

The mall after hours sure was something to behold

The leftover Subway cookies something to eat, yo

But our favorite pastime? Exploring the rooftops

We'd toss bowling balls off that bitch and do shots

I brought up Big Bertha and a bucket of golf balls

A makeshift driving range on top of the damn mall

We was watchin' movies before they came out and shit

I once found a five-dollar bill that was counterfeit

We did what we wanted at the easiest job in the whole entire world

Every restaurant in town gave us food on the house

We would stay late playin' GTA on the big screen; every kid's dream

Speakin' of kids, the teens used to sneak in

We'd have to remind them the movies are only for payin' customers

We can't just let everybody in for free, I mean; haha

For real though, we; we really did let everybody in for free

I swear the whole town either knew the manager or one of us who worked there

So yeah, you know we; we didn't charge 'em, you know, we just; we just let 'em in

Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin'

Ain't never gonna have a job like that again

Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was

Workin' at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah

Sometimes I reminisce on what was happenin'

Ain't never gonna have a job like that again

Sometimes I wanna go back to when I was

Workin' at the Carmike Cinemas, yeah
