letra de k-mart - uncle bonsai

you found the road to heaven
no matter which direction
across the intersection
you feel the open door
you got a nose for stores
here in a town that shares
and everybody stares
at everyone who cares
about the shopping wars

the bible belt pulls tighter
or it’s the flat-land fever
that makes a true believer
out of a child wife
who seems to love her life
she keeps her man alive
by having what it takes
to carve a man-sized steak
with just a b-tter knife

and any back yard preacher with a barbecue
can show the shortest route with just one hand
so every sunday fool who strayed from sunday school
to clean his swimming pool could understand
that it’s a common future
the calm before the storming
the lines are always forming
the signs are always clear
there’s not a trace of fear
if there’s a blue light blinking
the parish p-wns aren’t thinking
they’ve replaced the cleric
with generic beer

we’re all the same
we’ve all be planned
from coast to coast
we like to boast
there is most certainly
a k-mart close at hand
we make a stand
live day to day
and if we need another stray part
there will surely be a k-mart on the way

and there are school yard dealers
in towns the maps forgot
you place a call and psychic healers
put out all their psychic feelers
in the parking lot
and when the pavement’s hot
if you can hitch a ride
you go to buy ad infinitum
touch and try out every item
just to stay inside
and any loser with a licence
and boozer with a cause
will be anything but lost
every town is just the same
it it’s broadway or it’s first street
or it’s main street or it’s church street
the only thing that’s different is the name

we live forever
we get to play
it is our destiny that calls
in texas tw-ngs and southern drawls
and when they tear apart the malls
the k-marts stay
we foot the bills
we show no fear
and when more settlers come our way
start making plans for extra k-marts over here

and the churches were all empty
and the city streets were cleared
with all god’s speed
for the lord will lead all humans
to the store where all consumers
go to feed
he’ll take the stranded from their driveways
down the endless business highways
on the path of least resistance
to the neon in the distance
k-mart, k-mart, k-mart

you’ve got that tv smile
you saved another dollar
another brand name scholar
who’s got a box of wine
you read between the lines
you made it through the aisles
until the bargains stop
you’ll take the cart and shop
right up to closing time

we aim to please
we never stray
from start to end
we recommend
that everybody learn to spend the k-mart way
we’ve got our pride
we’re well defined
and when it comes the time to pay
smart people head for any k-mart they can find

we’ve seen the light
we’re not alone
and any start that’s half awake
jumps in the car and goes to make
the k-mart home
we’ve on our knees
we’re well behaved
and when it comes to judgement day
smart people know that all the k-marts
well be saved
