about

Take a journey to the Future Mall, where sky bridges don't just take you to the next shopping destination - they take you to any store in any mall from any year you wish to go.

This is the final entry in the "mall series" that started in summer 2021. Songs that celebrated the glory days and height of mall magic in the 80's and 90's. And with this song, we celebrate a vision for the mall of the future.

This tune is made all the more special with the brilliant vocals laid down by Wockenfuss, who paints such a vivid, magical picture as he takes you from decade to decade verse to verse.

Hope you enjoy!

lyrics

We roam in droves floating over linoleum
Stone washed jeans with the homemade holes in ‘em
Flights on the feet in each fist a bag
Been doing damage at the Squire Shop and Mr Rags
You want the time? Lemme check it on my Swatch and see
I don’t surf but I’m flexin’ in a Gotcha T
So lets let dimensions unravel like twine
Future Mall’s sky bridges let you travel through time

And you found me cold lampin’ in 1989
But we slide on a dime any date is fine
Checking malls in their infancy and in their prime
Portal engines work to keep the search terms defined
Check your setting, it’ll get you where you wish to go
Head for ’87, catch a Tiffany show
But lemme find a Foot Locker right before we ride
I wanna stomp into the 90s in some Jordan Vs

Generra Hypercolor if you’re bold you’ll touch me
My preppy girl’s got the Coca Cola rugby
Pay phone to her ear ‘cause she loves to chat
And when she wears LA Gears yo she’s such a brat
She comes prepared ‘cause she’s down for this
Got a scrunchie in her hair and one around each wrist
We’re hitting different decades every time we dip
’96 got her fitted in that Limited drip

’79 fly medallion how I flaunt the green
She’s singing “ooh la la” in her Sasson jeans
’87 in the Guess and you can see the tag
Question mark pocket under Esprit bag
In ’03 I’m posted up and there’s no rushing me
In MusicLand paying way too much for CDs
All this shopping’s got us awesome this shit’s a blast
Mall walkin’ through the not so distant past

Hangin’ at the Future Mall it’s hard to fade
Pumping quarters into cabinets in a dark arcade
Talking reckless as we exit ‘cause we ran the spot
Got the laser beam background for the Glamour Shot
Any year we visit, everywhere we’ve been
We find that kid is back on the escalator again
Cash or credit past or present we can do it all
Crashing through dimensions while we’re hanging at the Future Mall
