At the corner store
It's the corner of a brand new world
You can go in there
Just to know what it feels like
It's open and you're going in
Oh, and you know you can
Hoping you can stay there forever
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
I'm tall and handsome
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
And I'm dancing on the floor
At the corner store
We go all around the world
Then it closes
At the corner store
It's like no other store you've been in before
But now you're here
And you feel these emotions
If you close your eyes
You can watch the minutes of each day going by
But in the store, you'll find
The day lasts forever
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
I call and you'll answer
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
And we'll dance through the door
At the corner store
We'll go all around the world
'Til it closes
And the store is opening
You can go through the door
Through the rectangular hole in the wall
That's pretty cool
Hell, that's pretty good
Tell that to the whole damn neighbourhood
And all the people go "damn"
Hell, that's pretty weird
But it seems so logical, so sensible
Save that for the screen
Save that for the cover of a brand new magazine with 27 pages
All over the floor where everyone can read them
At the corner store
Up at the corner of a brand new world
It's right here
At a brand new location
You can go outside and wave "hi"
To all the other stores going by
Then one day, we will all be together
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
When you call, I'll answer
(Dun-da-dun-dun-dun)
And I'm dancing on the wall
At the corner store
You remember who you are
Then it slips away, then remember more
At the corner store
We go all around the world
Then it closes
