The Clash – Lost in the Supermarket Lyric

aus dem Album London Calling

I’m all lost in the supermarket,
I can no longer shop happily,
I came in here for that special offer
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 felling,
That’s how it’s been all around me.

I’m all lost in the supermarket,
I can no longer shop happily,
I came in here for that special offer
Guaranteed personality.

I’m all tined in, I see all the programmes,
I save coupons from packets of tea,
I’ve got my giant hot discotheque album,
I empty a bottle and I feel a little 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.

I’m all lost in the supermarket,
I can no longer shop happily,
I came in here for that special offer
Guaranteed personality.

And it’s not here,
it disappear.

I’m all lost in the supermarket,
I can no longer shop happily,
I came in here for that special offer
Guaranteed personality.
