Where Have All The Supermarkets Gone? (Parody)

Where Have All The Supermarkets Gone? (Parody)

Where have all the manned checkouts gone?
Long time passing.
Where have all the manned checkouts gone?
Long time ago?
 
Where have all the manned checkouts gone?
Gone to self- service every one.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
 
From where have self- service checkouts come?
Long time passing.
From where have the self- service checkouts come?
Long time ago?

From where have the self-service checkouts come?
Installed into supermarkets, every one.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
 
Where has customer service gone
Long time passing
Where has customer service gone
Long time ago?
 
Where has customer service gone?
Sacrificed in the name of profit and now gone.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have shop employees gone?
Long time passing.
Where have shop employees gone?
Long time ago.
 
Where have shop employees gone?
Office jobs? No- they have to work from home, alone.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
 
Where have all the customers gone
Long time passing?
Where have all the customers gone
Long time ago.
 
Where have all the customers gone?
They shop online and elsewhere every one.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
 
Where have all the supermarkets gone
Long time passing
Where have all the supermarkets gone
Long time ago?
 
Where have all the supermarkets gone?
Discount Stores with self- serve checkouts every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where has "meeting people" gone?
Long time passing.
Where has "meeting people" gone?
Long time ago.

Where has "meeting people" gone?
It's all Social Media and mobile phones.
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
