Mull Historical Society The Supermarket Strikes Back
Honey get the kids, honey sort the leeks
Make sure that the barcodes match the receipts
Honey theres a store, a new place in town
Theyre selling new blades for my mower
New blades for my mower
Its funny how it pays, its funny how it works
When you follow the codes from Head Office alerts
I read about a guy, he went walking away
Just walking and turned himself over
He turned himself over
Who tilts their head back and then swallows the pills
And expects to feel alive?
Ive finally found, a new place in town
Theyre selling new blades for my mower
New blades for my mower
And this is the last time
That Ill sit with my mouth wide open
And wait for the flies to come in
From the grave of a grocer
The grave of a grocer
Honey Im awake, honey Im alive
Its funny ha ha when I tickle your sides
My neons above, 24 hour love
My carrots are frozen all over
Theyre frozen all over
Who tilts their head back and then swallows the pills
And expects to feel alive?
Ive finally found, a new place in town
Its funny I thought he looked older
I thought he looked older
And this is the last time
That Ill sit with my mouth wide open
And wait for the flies to come in
From the grave of a grocer
The grave of a grocer
And I try to be a man
And I try to be a man
And I try to see the life inside of me
And I tilt my head back and I swallow the pills
I no longer feel alive
Re-order the rolls, straighten the pies
My prices are starting to lower
Theyre starting to lower
And this is the last time
That Ill sit with my mouth wide open
And wait for the flies to come in
From the grave of a grocer
The grave of a grocer
My place in the sun and my house near the ocean
My place in the sun and my house near the ocean
Is fading away, its fading away
And Ill hand myself over
Ill hand myself over
Im catching you up and Ive picked up your gloves
And Im catching you up and Ive picked up
your gloves
And Im walking your dogs and Im walking
your dogs
And Im catching you up and Ive picked up
your gloves
And Im walking your dogs and Im walking
your dogs
And Im walking your dogs and Im walking
your dogs
