Lyrics

[Intro][2]
Don't go, Cathy don't go!
Don't go, please don't go!
Don't go, Cathy don't go!
Don't go, please don't go!

[Chorus 1]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
Cause there's a very strange man at the checkout stand
And there's a laser scanner where you put your hand

[Chorus 2]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
(Don't go, Cathy don't go!)
Without a computer ID there's no way to pay
(Don't go, please don't go!)

[Verse 1]
I know there's a sale and a special on rice
And you can buy beans at a give-away price
But that's just their way to get you down there
What you don't know is that they're everywhere

[Bridge]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today

[Verse 2]
They had a special program on the TV last night
Explaining calmly why these things must be done right
They say the new computer is the way to control
But what they didn't say is that it costs your soul

[Chorus 1]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
(Don't go, Cathy don't go!)
Without a computer ID there's no way to pay
(Don't go, please don't go!)
Cause there's a very strange man at the checkout stand
And there's a laser scanner where you put your hand

[Bridge]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
Oh Cathy can't you see what they're trying to do?
This isn't just a new craze - they want to make us their slaves Oooh

[Verse 4]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
(Don't go, Cathy don't go!)
Cathy, let's leave while there's still time to get away
Honey, don't worry just take my hand
We can make it, even if we have to live off the land

[Outro]
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
(Cathy don't go to the supermarket today)
Cathy don't go to the supermarket today
(Cathy don't go to the supermarket today) Cathy don't go!
(Cathy don't go to the supermarket today) Oooh, Cathy don't go!

[Fade Out]
