Subject: RE: Tune Req: Madeline Kahn mall song?
A different mall song:
Aragon Mall
On the east end of town
In the heart of the sprawl
Where the traffic slows down
Stands the Aragon Mall
Bat there's no one at all
In the stores made of brick
For we all shop at home
Point & click, point & click
There's no teens anymore
Hanging out at the Gap
Now the stores that they haunt
Can fit right in their laps
And the only sound I hear
Makes me tired & sick
It's the children upstairs
Point & click, point & click
Now the mall has shut down
It's the life I used to know
Tell me where shall I go?
Tell me where shall I go?
Barnes & Noble has closed
And our Borders is still
Now my on-line account
Pays my Amazon bill
Yes, I'm too bored to move
And I'm too broke to die
And the screens of my life
Scroll on by, scroll on by
And the only sound I hear
Makes me tired & sick
It's my children upstairs
Point & click, point & click
Point & click, point & click
Music: 'Aragon Mill,' by Si Kahn
