Persuasion Lyrics - The Twelve Inch Singles - Soft Cell

My supermarket trolley 

Glides around the shelves 

Of frozen foods 

My supermarket trolley 

Glides around the shelves 

Of pre-packed goods 

It rattles an accompaniment 

To the droning from the speakers 

When I knock a jar (checkout 5) 

I stand and stare oblivious as it shatters 

(will the manager please go to checkout 5)

Someone passes by 

We near collide 

She's silent but she's frantic 

Can't figure out why she's bought so many useless items 

(checkout 5, will the manager please go to checkout 5) 

I can't figure out why I've bought so many useless items 

(there is a problem at checkout 5) 

I only wanted cigarettes 

(will you investigate please) 

I push my trolley further 

(will you investigate please) 

I glide around the frozen goods 

Lost in here forever 

Lost in here forever 

Lost in here forever 

Lost in here forever 

Ever (ever) 

Photos 

My arms do things oblivious of my wishes and my orders 

(there is a problem at checkout 5 

Will the manager investigate please) 

The frantic woman has turned white 

A hand upon her shoulder 

Buy (buy) buy (buy) 

Buy more now 

Buy (buy) buy (buy)

Buy (buy) buy (buy)

Buy (buy) buy (buy) 

Buy more now 

I only hear the neutron sounds 

By the cheap impersonators 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

Buy, buy

I only hear the neutron sounds 

By the cheap impersonators 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

(I don't want any of them) 

And I out run my limitations 

(I can't afford all these things 

I can't afford all these things) 

And I out run my limitations 

(I can't afford all these things) 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations 

(I don't want any of them) 

And I out run my limitations

And I out run my limitations 

And I out run my limitations

And I out run my limitations 

(leave me alone, leave me alone) 

And I out run my limitations 

Leave me alone 

Leave me alone 

Leave me alone 

Please 

I don't want them

Leave me alone
