Verse 1
G
Well, I can't afford to pay this month's rent
G
On cigarettes and booze, all my money's been spent
C
That letter from the bailiffs it looks quite serious
G D G
How those people sleep at night is quite mysterious
G
I've got a payment plan for the electricity
G
By Christmas I will have paid them off, Christmas 2033
C
My Mum gave me a tenner to buy dinner for the night
G D G
But I put every penny on Black 29
C
Now I've got no money to buy food and wine
G D G
and I'm just hanging out in Aisle 5
Chorus 1
C G
There's an unexpected item in my bagging area
C G
I don't know how it got there-ea
C G
The man is coming over and it's getting scarier
C D G
I think this machine must be broken.
Verse 2
G
Now I'm no thief, stealing is really not my style
G
Those self-checkouts they really drive me wild
C
I can swap the labels around from the deli-counter
G D G
I feel a bit like Jesus when I put wine through as water
G
I can pretend to scan something, make the beeping with my mouth
G
It doesn't feel wrong because no one loses out
C
So I was just finalising the details of my plan
G D G
Filling up my basket with real pork ham
C
When suddenly I looked up and there was my friend's Mum
G D G
And in the light of Aisle 5, she looked weirdly attractive
Chrous 2
C G
There's an unexpected item in my private area
C G
I don't know how it got there-ea
C G
Now she's coming over and it's getting scarier
C D G
I think my morals have broken.
Verse 3
G
She's looking at my shopping and says "Wow, You must be plush!
G
I've got a full time job and I can't afford that stuff"
C
I said "We only ever have 'Taste The Difference' of Course!
G D G
I never get the basics brands, I don't like horse"
G
Then I realise she was quite delighted.
G
All the premium branded food was getting her excited
C
So she takes me by the hand, I try to explain "I'm just not ready!"
G D G
But she makes a make-shift bed out boxes of Frosted Shreddies
C
Half an hour later I'm praying it doesn't turn blue
G D G
I don't know how I feel about stealing for two.
Chorus 3
C G
There's an unexpected item in her bagging area
C G
I don't know how it got there-ea
C G
The midwife's coming over and it's getting scarier
C D G
But it's nice to know my machine isn't broken
