My supermarket trolley Glides around the shelves Of frozen foods My supermarket trolley Glides around the shelves Of pre-packed goods It rattles an accompaniment To the droning from the speakers When I knock a jar (checkout 5) I stand and stare oblivious as it shatters (Will the manager please go to checkout 5) Someone passes by We near collide She's silent but she's frantic Can't figure out why she's bought so many useless items (Checkout 5, will the manager please go to checkout 5) I can't figure out why I've bought so many useless items (There is a problem at checkout 5) I only wanted cigarettes (Will you investigate please) I push my trolley further (Will you investigate please) I glide around the frozen goods Lost in here forever Lost in here forever Lost in here forever Lost in here forever Ever (ever) My arms do things oblivious of my wishes and my orders (There is a problem at checkout 5 Will the manager investigate please) The frantic woman has turned white A hand upon her shoulder Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now I only hear the neutron sounds By the cheap impersonators And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations Buy, buy (Checkout 5) Buy more now Buy, buy (There is a disturbance at checkout 5) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now Buy (buy) buy (buy) Buy more now I only hear the neutron sounds By the cheap impersonators And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations (I don't want any of them) And I out run my limitations (I can't afford all these things I can't afford all these things) And I out run my limitations (I can't afford all these things) And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations (I don't want any of them) And I out run my limitations (I don't want all these things) And I out run my limitations And I out run my limitations (Please, please, leave me alone) And I out run my limitations (Leave me alone, leave me alone) And I out run my limitations Leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone Please I don't want them I don't want them I can't afford them Leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone Leave me alone (Leave me alone Leave me alone) (Can't afford them Leave me alone Leave me alone)
