"Grocery Store" lyrics

"Grocery Store"

This is a song about a magical place
Goin' to the grocery store and buy a cantaloupe
Goin' to the grocery store and buy myself a steak
Back to the fruit, pick up another cantaloupe
Find a Betty Crocker, gonna bake a birthday cake

Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store

You can buy a pair of scissors or a pint of chow mien
You can buy some daisies that are wrapped in cellophane
Do you need envelopes?
Do you need cat toys?
Do you need stain remover for your favourite corduroys

Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store

Okay, here's a question for you
Dare I say, food for thought?
And more, why is all the fruit not in an isle?
Its always to the left or right when you walk through the door
This is so consistent at the grocery store
Let's buy cereal, let's buy fudgesicles
Also don't forget, you should buy a frozen pizza
How about a giant cookie and a can of whipped cream?
A bunch of printer paper and a garden magazine

Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store

They get creative with the soda
Pepsi boxes stacked like bricks
A lady hands out meatballs that are served with tiny toothpicks
You can buy a starter log if you wanna start a fire
You can buy deodorant so you can be desired

Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store

It's funny when a grocery store goes a little bit rouge
For example, let me tell you about when I was fourteen
A few isles from the aforementioned fruit
My mom bought me a navy blue snow suit
Oh yeah, I wore a snow suit from the grocery store

A snowsuit from the grocery store

So many types of Jello, looks like 30 kinds of Jello
Can you believe they have one called melon-fusion?
Let's stick to strawberry or maybe wild cherry
Or how 'bout classic lime? Let's not get so disillusioned
Who needs melon-fusion?

When you can go to the grocery store and buy a cantaloupe
Go to the grocery store and buy yourself a steak
Go back to the fruit, pick out another cantaloupe
Find a Betty Crocker, gonna bake a birthday cake

Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store
Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store
Oh yeah, so many things at the grocery store
Yeah, I'm at the grocery store, yeah
I'm at the grocery store
I'm at the grocery store
