Wal-Mart, she lived on the edge of town
She would never be caught hanging around
On Main Street
She’s not that kind of girl
Getting into the outskirts was enough
We sold our soul to buy her stuff
On Rollback
Rollback our lives
Wal-Mart
She’ll give it to you cheap
Her discounts are really deep
But don’t ask her how she gets those low, low prices
Wal-Mart
That Yellow Smiley face
The future of the human race?
How low can you go?
Wal-Mart, she’ll greet you with a smile
Then she’ll lead you down the aisle
And she’ll leave you there
There on Aisle Ten
You just wanted to save a buck
You went in and picked something up
It’s a price you may
Just have to pay
Does Wal-Mart cry at night?
Knows what she’s doin’ just ain’t right
Or is it with pride
She takes us for a ride
Oooo-oooooo
It’s ruthless and cruel
But you’d just be a fool
To let someone else
Take your space on the shelf
You gotta fight back
You gotta attack
It’s the American way
So let us all pay
Wal-Mart
She’ll give it to you cheap
Her discounts are really deep
But don’t ask her how she gets those low, low prices
Wal-Mart
That Yellow Smiley face
The future of the human race?
How low can you go?
How low can you go? How low can you go?
How low can you go? How low can you go?
