about

This track was written after a trip to my favorite Yorkville hair salon. I got to sit next to e of my favorite actresss who wasin town for TIFF. I asked her the secret of her success, she was kind enough to tell me. I raced home and put her advice into this song.

lyrics

Hey Cinema Girl, I loved your movie
That's how I broke the ice
She was sitting in the chair by mine in the salon where
Kim cuts our hair real nice, real nice

Hey Cinema Girl, you're quite a vision
wont you tell your secret?
She said “Every day I make a promise to myself.
And every day I keep it. I keep it. I

Chorus:
Jump in the sandbox, jump in the sandbox
jump in the sandbox everyday and play”

Hey Cinema Girl, your wrote the movie
and gave yourself the best part...
She said “I knew no one would hand me my power so I took it and
worked from my heart, straight from my hear and I

Chorus
Jumped in the sandbox. Jump in the sandbox
Jump in the sandbox everyday and play”

Bridge:
“I'm the star of my own movie cuz
no one else does justice to me.”


Chorus
Jump in the sandbox, jump in the sandbox
Jump in the sandbox everyday 2x
