Jennifer Connelly as Emma the nightclub singer in "Dark City"

In "Dark City" humans live in a city designed by aliens based on often fallible human memory, which is why when Jennifer Connelly's character sings "Sway" in a nightclub the lyrics go "When marimba rhythms hug the shore / Hold me sway / More more more / Be-bop-a-lula, Fame / I'm gonna live forever".

Blow, blow, thou winter wind,
Thou art not so unkind
As man’s ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Mahna mahna.
