THE DAY THEY ALTERED ALL THE AISLES IN ALDI

Words & Music – Graham & Bernadette Dixon (Trouble at’ Mill)

C                                     G                        C      
The day they altered all the aisles in Aldi
       F                                                       C
We wandered round like homeless refugees
         F                                                       C   (Am)
We couldn't find the butter for our crumpets
                G                                           C
And we couldn't find the packs of Lanky cheese

Customers screamed out in desperation
Why don't they leave things just the way they were
Trolleys crashed and shopping list were screwed up
And the manager was tearing out his hair

The staff are trying their best to give directions
Even thought they are receiving lots of flak
They've had to set up base camp by the checkout
To make sure that they can find their own way back

The frozen food is hiding high above you
So unless your with somebody very tall
You need to bring your crampons and your ice axe
All the freezers are now fitted up the wall

There's a woman in the aisle just by the bog rolls
Distraught with tears running down both cheeks
She sent her kids to find digestive biscuits
She's not seen them now for nigh on near a week

We've been lost in Aldi now since Friday morning
Need to let the outside world know that we're in here
We thought we'd try a message in a bottle
But we can't find were theyve move the bloody beer

As time goes by we'll all become accustomed
We accept if there's no pain there is no gain
And we'll just get used to all the new positions
Then they'll move the bloody lot around again

So we've had our whinge and criticised the system
But we'll all stick fast with Aldi in the end
'cause if we shop at Asda, Morrisons or Sainsburys
We won't have any money left to spend
