PAY AS YOU LEAVE
Note A theater at Bend has in
stalled a new system of "Pay as you
Leave."
There's another way of going
Where the movies are a-Bhowing
In an Oregon town that's known as
iBend
The pictures you can be seeing
Just like a real human being
But you pay when the show comes to
an end.
' As the sidewalk you are walking
Suddenly you quit your talking
There's a picture of soma actor you
know
And you do not dig for money
And to see you walk looks funny
Into the place as if you owned the
show.
When the features are a-reeling
Vim ho vp a nntaited feeling?
For you can leave if you don't like
the play
Pleasant momenta you are spending
For you know when H is ending
If not satisfied you don't have to pay.
And the owners are a-saying
The amount that they are paying
Are larger than one would really be
Sieve
And they say there is not many
That pass out and dont pay any
It's proved a success to "Pay as you
leava."
