lyrics

Food shopping at the dollar store
Food shopping at the dollar store
You paid 1.08
For each thing you ate
They'll never charge you a penny more

Food shopping at the dollar store
Food shopping at the dollar store
They got refried beans
And miscreant teens
Guaranteed not to be a bore

Food shopping at that dollar store
I don't mean the kind you'll find downstate
That "ninety nine" is a hook and bait
Left of the decimal's the true price
When it's a zero, oo that's nice!

Food shopping at the dollar store
Food shopping at that dollar store
They got canned up meats and tasty treats
Inactive yeast and fancy feast
Chef Boy R Don’t And Duncan-Himes
Slanted rhymes and copyright crimes
If you're looking for a little fun
They got a two-in-one
Paperclip gun

But just when you thought it was so cheap
Your eyes bulge out when you see the receipt
When you say to yourself, 42 times
"It's only a buck! Just ten slim dimes!"
Then tack on new york state sales tax
It comes to 45.60, them's the facts
That's almost fifty bucks, if you round up
And do you really need that novelty cup?

Food shopping at the dollar store
Food shopping at the dollar store
They got aisles of surprises
Can't believe your irises
They even put in a sliding door

Food shopping at the dollar store
Food shopping at the dollar store
You paid 1.08
For each thing you ate
They'll never charge you a penny more

Food shopping at that dollar store!

I've been mesmerized by music ever since they dropped off one of them old-timey player pianos and that ghost started tickling the ivories.

Liikewise
by Day Cube

This guy has incredible breadth as an artist, from idiosyncratic poetry set to sweet acoustic guitar stylings to this album, with its hypnotizing synth licks. Find his other work for your own good! Sarah Galvin

Camp Sabbatical

I'm going to be honest with you: I wrote this album. But I am so proud of creating a cohesive EP and producing the songs like I heard them in my head! Can you tell me what genre it is? I'm not sure. Sarah Galvin

I co-wrote this operetta with kt Donovan and Nicholas Gentile in less than 7 months time, and then we produced the world premiere within the walls of historic Fort Ontario. Brava! Sarah Galvin
