[barniclebill]

Can anybody think of any songs that remind you or are about shopping in anyway whatsoever? We so far have Shopping by the Petshop Boys, Franz Ferdinand - Shopping for Blood, Cant buy me love by the beatles, and Down Town by Petulia Clarke. Posted in music but nobody gave us anything. Many thanks you kind, kind people!

Downtown
By Tony Hatch

When you're alone
And life is making you lonely
You can always go, Downtown
When you�ve got worries
All the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, Downtown
Listen to the music
Of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalks
Where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles
Forget all your cares, and go

Chorus: Downtown
Things�ll be great when you�re
Downtown
No finer place for sure
Downtown
Everything�s waiting for you.

Don�t hang around
And let your problems surround you
There are movie shows, Downtown
Maybe you know
Some little places to go
Where they never close, Downtown
Listen to the rhythm of the gentle bossa nova
You�ll be dancing with them to
Before the night is over
Happy again
The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles
Forget all your cares, and go

Chorus

Oh you might find somebody kind
To help and understand you
Someone who is just like you
And needs a gentle hand
To guide them along
So maybe I�ll see you there
We can forget all our troubles
Forget all our cares, and go

Chorus

And finally "The Shopping song"

Take a look all around
Here are some shops that I've found
There are different shops in every town
And you can buy everything there

There are little shops and bigger shops
And supermarkets selling all you need
Food to eat and clothes to wear
Or books and papers, magazines to read

Say what you need to buy
It may be on a shelf up high
Grown-ups meet and chat and babies cry
And you can buy everything there

There's a baker's shop with bread and cakes
A shoe shop with some fashion for your feet
The shop with all the games and toys
And next door there's a shop that's full of sweets

Take a look all around
Here are some shops that I've found
There are different shops in every town
And you can buy everything there

Piece of Crap by Neil Young and Crazy Horse.
Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin

Lyrics for Piece of Crap:

Tried to save the trees
Bought a platsic bag
The bottom fell out
It was a piece of crap

Saw it on the tube
Bought it on the phone
Now you're home alone
It's a piece of crap

I tried to plug in it
I tried to turn it on
When I got it home
It was a piece of crap

Got it from a friend
On him you can depend
I found out in the end
It was a piece of crap

I'm trying to save the trees
I saw it on TV
They cut the forest down
To build a piece of crap

I went back to the store
They gave me four more
The guy told me at the door
It's a piece of crap
