It was the hottest day that anyone remembered
The air could make you choke
We gathered round our single air conditioner,
But it broke
So we headed out to search for better weather
Watchin' the temperature gauge in the car
To escape the heat, you barely have to travel
Far
To chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Uh-huh
I took off to the desert for vacation
Serenity has no cost
And though I followed the directions to heavenly oasis,
I got lost
It was all chain stores, malls and restaurants
Like chain stores, malls and restaurants
Everywhere chain stores, malls and restaurants
Oh, yeah
That's right
I took my son out drivin' in the country
To see the seasons change
He said "Mommy, I don't like it, it's too quiet and strange."
There's no chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Ooh-whee
Since we're permeating every other country,
I have no doubt
Soon you'll have to search to find a village standing
Without...
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and...
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls and...
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores, malls and restaurants
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores, malls...
Chain stores,
Malls
And restaurants
Oh, yeah
That's right
