At The Mall Lyrics & Chords By Patty Larkin

It was a Saturday
A lazy kind of Saturday
Kind of a bore, kind of a snore
Kind of Saturday

I thought I'd bake a cake
But then I remembered, I hate to bake
Nothing but sports on the telly and I thought
My heart would break

But then it occurred to me
In a moment of truth
Suddenly I realized what I had to do

I had to go to the Mall, the Mall
For the blacktop, the parking spaces and all
I had to go to the Mall, the Mall
Where that mass of humanity meets face to face
Instant insanity show me the way
To the Mall, the Mall

It was a friend's birthday
My very best friend's birthday
Funny how old father time catches up with us
In the same way

I forgot to get a gift
I think my mind had probably been adrift
Oh all the sorrow I felt when I feared
It would cause a rift

But then it occurred to me
In a moment of truth
Suddenly I realized what I had to do

I had to go to the Mall, the Mall
For those tirnkets of junk and that ain't all
I had to go to the Mall, the Mall
"It's a combo snowblower, hair dryer, here's how it goes"
"Do you have it in pink? I'll take two of those"
At the Mall

It was a rainy night
A romantic kind of rainy night
The kind of a night when you wish you had someone
To hold you tight

I went to a single's bar
Then to another single's bar
Nary a tingle, still I thought I'd hit one more
Singles bar

But then it occurred to me
In a moment of truth
Suddenly I realized what I had to do

I had to go to the Mall, the Mall
It's so easy to find romance at the Mall
I had to go to the Mall, the Mall,
Just stand in the door where they sell lingerie
You're sure to find someone looking your way
At the Mall, the Mall

At the Mall, the Mall
At the Mall, the Mall

You'll find it all
At the Mall
