lyrics

When I'm sad I like to go to the mall
(I got my paycheck, I got my broken heart)
They got a lot of nice things at the mall
(They got a food court, they got a movie theater)
People are strange but we all look the same at the mall

Life is like a escalator down at the mall
(Stay to the right if you don't want to crawl)
It's easy to lose your self at the mall
(You want a gift receipt, you want some wrapping paper)
God is for sale and he checks his e-mail at the mall

Mall life
Gotta give it away, gotta lose the little bit you're given
Mall life
Gonna take my heart, gonna put it in a box like a birthday present
I'll give it to her so that she can be sure that I love her at all
Mall life
This is all we have, the only real way to connect the pieces
Mall life
Cash or credit, if it gets declined you know I have my reasons
It all makes me sigh as I'm wasting my life at the mall

I saw you talking to that boy at the mall
(He's got his hand in your ass jean pocket)
I hear he landed on his head when he fell
(It's along way down from the Cinabon)
Don't ever let me see you two together at all

The only lover I can turn to is the mall
(The soft touch of a five finger discount)
The only place that I can write is the mall
(The sweet sound of that muzak in my ear)
If you are gone then just leave me alone at the mall

Let me die in my mall...
Let me die in my mall...

Once upon a time
In the J.C. Penny line
There was a boy, there was a girl
And without a single fucking word,
He promised her the world
She knew then that he would
If only he could reach out to her now
So tell me if the rumor's true
That our merger's fallen through
Just let me take my banner's down
Let my lucky pennies drown
Let me die here in my mall...
Let me die here in my mall...
