Song: LOVE PADS THE FILM

Episode: 202- The Sidehackers

Joel: It wasn't killing that padded out the film. Only love pads the film! (Lights dim, music swells)

Joel (singing):

When stories were young
And dreams were not done
And sorrow was so far away
A story book scene
With songs to be sung
And life, life was just for today

Tom (spoken, dreamily): Oh, Joel!

Joel (singing):

But nothing lasts forever
Only love pads the film
Of all the dreams you'll treasure
Only love love pads the film

Tom (spoken): Joel, may I?
Joel (spoken): Please

Tom (singing):

The love that you make
With two hearts as one
All told, will still flow in the wind. (spoken) Crow?

Crow (singing):

You give all you take
A day in the sun
But even the sun must descend. La-la!

Joel (spoken): Everybody now! (Tom, Crow and Joel sing chorus, Gypsy tries to help)
All (singing): But nothing lasts forever
Gypsy (singing just behind them): Forever!
All: Only love
Gypsy: Only love!
All: Pads the film
Gypsy: Pads the film!
All: Of all the dreams you'll treasure
Gypsy: Treasure!
All: Only love
Gypsy: Only love!
All: Pads the film
Gypsy: Pads the film!
Joel (still singing): But now the scientists are calling. And now we better get going. Hmmm-hm....(cut)
