A recorded reading of “Glitter in the Groceries”. If the player does not load, use the original audio source.
Our trolley wobbles, righteous. You two-step past tins of peaches, turn aisle nine to falling stars— confetti from fluorescent heaven. Glitter raids the cereals; you turn my basket into a piccolo parade. The receipt reads milk and miracles— R18.99 for wonder, please. We split a grape and call it gold. The scanner pips, sings amen. Cold air from the chiller nips our ankles. The doors slide open. We bow to the afternoon.
Instructional lyrics
[Intro 8b analog pad lofi drums hall] [Tag 2b reverb tail] [Verse 1 4/4 ~100bpm] Our trolley wobbles, right You two-step past the tins Aisle nine drops stars Confetti from the lights [Pre rise filter sweep] Glitter raids the cereal rows You turn my basket to song Little piccolo parade We roll, we sing along [Break 2b stop] [Chorus bigger stacked chorus] glitter in the store glow more with me [Verse 2] Receipt says milk, miracles Eighteen rand ninety-nine, wonder The scanner pips, says amen Cold air bites our ankles [Pre rise bring bass] Doors slide, light rushes in We laugh, the street says go We bow to the day We let the bright wind blow [Break 2b stop] [Chorus bigger double vox] glitter in the store glow more with me [Bridge strip to vox+pad] We split one grape, call it gold I hold your hand, don’t fold [Chorus bigger stacked chorus] glitter in the store glow more with me [Chorus x2] [Tag 2b reverb tail] [Outro 4b lofi drums hall] Trolley hum, soft wheels Neon on our knees
