Devil's Due Page #7

Synopsis: After a mysterious, lost night on their honeymoon, a newlywed couple finds themselves dealing with an earlier-than-planned pregnancy. While recording everything for posterity, the husband begins to notice odd behavior in his wife that they initially write off to nerves, but, as the months pass, it becomes evident that the dark changes to her body and mind have a much more sinister origin.

(ONCE UPON A TIME PLAYING)

Once upon a time

When I was in high school.

I was in love with you, lady

And you treated me so cool.

I was driving a Chevy '72.

It had four on the floor,

girl 120 it would do.

And I remember Marvin Gaye.

Singin' What's Going On.

And there was a war, baby

Somewhere across the sea.

I don't wanna go and fight, girl

'Cause you were really lovin' me.

I remember Martin Luther King.

Lord, he was the man, babe

That gave us all a dream.

And I remember Marvin Gaye.

Singin' What's Going On.

Don't play with my love.

And I remember Marvin Gaye.

Singin' What's Going On.

They used to have

sweet music in the park.

Lord, up at Monterey straight

down to the Melody Bar.

You used to wear, girl

Them hot pants.

When you strolled down the hall

All the boys wanted a chance.

And I remember Marvin Gaye.

Singin' What's Going On.

Don't play with my love, oh.

I remember Otis Redding.

Sittin' at the Dock of the Bay.

But then he went away.

And I remember Sam Cooke, y'all.

So Bring It on Home to Me.

From your love I can't be free.

I remember Elvis Presley.

And them Blue Suede Shoes.

Lord, they gave me the blues.

I remember Marvin Gaye.

Singin', yeah Let's Get It On
