Glen Phillips - Fred Meyers lyrics

rate me

I want to see you some time

Come find me, I'll be home

Just between the Costco

And the Barnes and Noble

Behind the mom and pop grocery

That shut down in the 90's

Like all the other locals

They smashed the dreams of the hopeful

I'm getting off track, sorry

It's like I said, right in there

There was a Fredrick Meyers

Sold everything from fruit to tires

Check in with the doorman

An old biker named Slim

Just say you're here to see me

Don't forget to tip him

One hand must wash the other

Each man must be a brother

Band up and take cover

We'll go dancing, set fires,

Tag buildings, slash tires,

Drive go-carts like Shriners

Or just hang out at Fred Meyers

Bring a lantern with you

It gets dark in places

Go up the escalator

To the section that was kids' wear

I'm at the back wall left side

Under a sign says Levis

Top bunk, second row

If I'm not in right then

Ask around, somebody'll know

'Cause everybody knows me

(Chorus)

We'll go out babe, skateboarding

Go looting, food hoarding

Whatever you desire

We can just stay in my bed at Fred Meyers

(Chorus)

We'll go out, babe, drink moonshine

Tip rubble on the East Side

Dig deep holes to China

Or we could just stay in my bed at Fred Meyers

Why don't we just stay in my bed a Fred Meyers
