GROCERIES - words by Nate Butler & Andrew Chittick, music by Nate Butler
Wandering these lonely aisles, I smell the faces, hear the smiles
Watching all the raw fresh meat
I have no money; I don't eat
Fat old ladies in Mercedes
Post-war babies of the 80's
Save me ... or just buy me groceries
Handsome men in five-piece suits
Anarchistic Puss-In-Boots
Show me ... you could always blow me away
Well, I live in a sewer hole; I smoke a bowl to soothe my soul
I go into Food King just to get some munchies -- I get busted
Fat old ladies in Mercedes
Post-war babies of the 80's
Save me ... or just buy me groceries
Handsome men in five-piece suits
Anarchistic Puss-In-Boots
Show me ... you could always blow me away
Wandering these lonely aisles, I smell the faces, hear the smiles
Watching all the raw fresh meat
I have no money; I don't eat
Fat old ladies in Mercedes
Post-war babies of the 80's
Save me ... or just buy me groceries
Groceries
I need groceries
Buy me groceries
Give me groceries
