The grocery store business
–CHORUS–
What can I say about the grocery biz ……
That it is a simple minded job that doesn’t take a scientist
Nor do you have to be some type of a brain whiz
A store director that doesn’t contain any common sense
A non-educated background is what it iz ……
So please don’t confuse all this
This is the grocery biz
Uneducated, narrow minded individuals with no ambition
Not paying enough for one to further their education
Not enough hours to cover the basic college tuition
Who in the hell do you think you are ‘convincin’
Keeping others down in a lower life settling situation
A team of managers that are only there -4- the ‘complainin’
You are the pot I would like to be ‘pissin’ in
Only a bunch of losers who found a place of fame to win
The little store you can control and enforce your own depression
Cannot fulfill another with advancement, nor your own wisdom
I see how you walk and think you are smart
When you only rank with a day old pop tart
To good to help another person out and show a heart
When you should be shoved and pushed around in a shopping cart
Your eyes are set to only see what you only believe
While you should seek inner peace, but this you are to late to retrieve
All that is good on you is one of your sleeves
So one person might use it right after they sneeze

So please don’t confuse all this
This is the grocery biz
The supervisors who got stuck and cannot have a better future
All departments from the Bakery to Store Directors and the Butchers
The feeling of a sadness comes to my mind for a moment
As it passes quickly because you’re the one stuck in it
Seeing how you made your own life so complicated
Trying to smile, not showing it as you really can’t hide it
The odor is pouring out your pours only smelling like shit
Knowing you became nothing, and this job you cannot quit
Watching over your shoulder as you might be on a hit list
Because there were so many you disrespected in your past
Your body might continue to carry on in this moment
But your soul is diminished and wont ever last
Those quiet interventions in the office you tried to control
Only to be looked upon in the store as the biggest asshole
Or maybe this was something you didn’t quite know
When confrontations erupt you only go and hide in your hole
Leaving problems for others as you sneak your stroll home
Please keep your head down in shame as you are mentally all alone

So please don’t confuse all this
This is the grocery biz
Walking your thrown while putting other’s down
Treating another as if they were as low as the ground
Never known to see you smile, only learned your frown
It’s a wonder you still have a client to shop in here from this town
As when you leave the store your laughed at like a clown
You speak a hard word when others are around
But when put in your place you can’t even make a sound
There is much more that one can come out and confess
Seeing the air others breathe is wasted from my experience
So much negativity aimed in another direction at another’s expense
Usually when the interrogator can’t see over their own fence
Having a manager keep the employees with pay and hours at a less
When it’s the managers that are enduring the true stress
I believe they can’t handle their own pressure, I guess?
Striving day after day to make another an emotional mess
For this became a daily treasure, a managers day of bliss
They know the human anatomy part that they can all kiss
So enjoy these rhymes, as it’s aimed for the managers to get dissed.
