Animated mannequins in a still life Mall...

 Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.
Have you ever wondered how the unlife live;

have you dared to think about it as you pass by them?

Animated maniquins in a still life Mall
Striking contrast to the clutter against the wall.

Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.
No such luck now, at least two hours more to stall!

Dizzing motion as walkers pass by,
Out in a distance, a man unloosens a tie.

A smooth haired young woman, hair pulled back too tight,
She laughs and watches another's obnoxious delights.

Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.
Have you ever wondered how the unlife live;

have you dared to think about it as you pass by them?

  Little Tony Blue comes crying with his Mom
not even a thought of all the good he has done.

Can he not have the thing that his heart most desires
Animated maniquins in a still life Mall...

Striking contrast to the clutter against the wall.
Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.

No such luck now, at least an hour more to stall!
Those dismal trends which seem to repeat, 

Horrid styles which are worn on the street.
The clamour and noise of cliperty feet,

     of shuffeling aged patrons just looking for a seat.

 
  Mr. Everett searches as most all his money's lost.
his steps he retraced as he sorrowfully counted the cost.

But the Animated maniquins in a still life Mall are a
Striking contrast to the clutter against the wall.

Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.
No such luck now, a half hour more to stall!

We stand here  unnoticed, actions flurry and arise,
We hoping to retire these all gazing eyes.

     Go Home! the shop's closed can you not read my sign?


  Myra a teenager just running down the hall
and a rude fellow pushed her against the wall, tripped into
the  
maniquins in the still life Mall.
The clamour and noise of cliperty feet,

Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.
Have you ever wondered how the unlife live;

have you dared to think about it as you pass by them?

of shuffeling aged patrons just looking for a seat.


 Oh sister don't whine... I've been on my feet too long!
Girl, I am telling you... you're going to have to change
your song.

We stand here  unnoticed, actions flurry and arise,
We hoping to retire these all gazing eyes.

    Go Home! the shop is closed can you not read my sign?

The clock strikes Ten at the back office den. 

The cafe closes it's doors, The Shears Shop, The Dennies,
the Flares Boutique, Lights out and lock out the cash
drawers.

Awaiting a lock-up from the guard down the hall.

have you dared to think about it as you pass by them?
