about

© Project Freeman Music/Rude Griller Music (1998/99 Gregorian)

You know how it goes, you just want a couple of bits, so you drive to the supermarket, but once they've got you in there the subliminal mind fuck takes over (think they call it "marketing") and you end up buying all this shit you don't need!
Ah, but there's always the good old corner shop down the end of your road yeah? Just wait till you get home and pop in there instead, much better... "then I found you <3"

See: freemanmusic.org/shopcorn.htm for full details

lyrics

Feeling funny, I was running out of money
I was feeling like a sheep in a zoo
That's not so strange, that's the way it's been arranged
To maximise the spending you do

Then I found you
Then I found you

If you want some custard or a little jar of mustard
Then a supermarket isn’t for you
Your eyes are popping at the seven bags of shopping
And the three’s for the prices of two

You drive for miles and you’re running out of smiles
And the petrol’s running out of your tank
Queue up for parking and the dog inside you’s barking (ruff!)
At the money running out of your bank

Then I found you
Then I found you
Then I found you
Yeah I found you

You’re driving miles while they’re moving all the aisles
So when you get there you can’t find what you need
Shop on the corner may be choc-a-bloc and smaller
But it satisfies the boundaries of greed

*We’re being conned by the shopping magic wand
And we don’t know if we’re coming or going
Smoke a joint what’s the fuckin’ bonus point
When you think about the money you’re owing*

But I found you
Yeah I found you
Now I've found you
Yeah I found you

(*these lyrics by Martin Hynes*)
