Jump into the buggy; prepare to ride
Past the garden of bananas and greens
Over muffin hills and grain mountainside
To the Grand Canyon of poultry and meat.

To enamel destructive candy land
With carbonated rivers flowing free
Hear crunch of chip leaves by hungry hands
Trek across the bitter artic ice cream.

Here's the destination shown by bright lights
A strings of bulbs against a neon sky
Unpack your luggage; must check before flight
Get ticket after the metal choir's cry.

Sympathize with me and let your mind soar,
I'm a cashier at a grocery store.
