about

Here's a song I wrote about what it's like to go grocery shopping in my hometown of Santa Cruz California.

My promise to you.. 100% of all proceeds from the purchase of this song will go towards BUYING GROCERIES! Thanks. I will cook something delicious.

lyrics

I was at safeway over on the west side
it was getting late on a saturday night
up and down every aisle everyone I walked by
it could have been me but

everybody seemed high
and they were holding hands
staring at all the cans

staring down fish sticks in the frozen foods
making sure that they're dead
making sure they don't move
carts full of pizzas and carts full of booze
it could have been me but

everybody seemed high
but you could feel the love
produce section backrubs
safeway saturday night

ten people deep and only one checkout line
no one seems angry everything is just fine
this might take all night but nobody minds
this isn't just me cuz

everyone's high
public displays of affection
in the bulk food section
Safeway Saturday night

oh everyone's high
exchanging knowing smiles
in the cereal aisle
safeway saturday night
