It's a twenty-four-hour shop 'til you drop
Unpacking and racking for your peace of mind
Then they move stuff around so it's harder to find
Whether 'extra' or 'metro' on the outskirts of town
They've seen you coming and want you to browse
With your right on attitude and new consumer mood
You're an ethical shopper buying organic food
But the closest you get to 'communing' with nature
Is reading the wrapper, labelled with paper
And the cellophane wrapper separates you from dinner
You're a modern hunter-gatherer and every deal is a winner
And you're lucky go happy with the deals that you've found
As you grab your pound of flesh for less than a pound,
Stuffing your trolley with more than you need,
Full of 'two for one' offers; there's a family to feed
With your wide, wide eyes and your bushy tail
You shuffle down the isle at the pace of a snail
Now I join the queue where you tussle and jostle
How would I like to pay? Try as quickly as possible!
As I'm sick of their customer caring façade
When they ask me about cashback or a loyalty card
For it's my loyalty card that primes them with data
So they can hit me with junk mail if they feel like it – later!
