The Clash - Lost in the Supermarket lyrics

rate me

(Strummer/Jones)

CHORUS

I'm all lost in the supermarket

I can no longer shop happily

I came in here for that special offer

A guaranteed personality

I wasn't born so much as I fell out

Nobody seemed to notice me

We had a hedge back home in the suburbs

Over which I never could see

I heard the people who lived on the ceiling

Scream and fight most scarily

Hearing that noise was my first ever feeling

That's how it's been all around me

CHORUS

I'm all tuned in, I see all the programmes

I save coupons from packets of tea

I've got my giant hit discoteque album

I empty a bottle and I feel a bit free

The kids in the halls and the pipes in the walls

Make me noises for company

Long distance callers make long distance calls

And the silence makes me lonely

CHORUS

And it's not hear

It disappear

CHORUS 2x

I'm all lost 6x (CHORUS: Background 2x)

CHORUS

I'm all lost 3x

CHORUS (fade)
