Lyric

An old man came back carrying

A box way bigger than his pride

A busted bike strapped on the back

Toys spilling from a factory left to die

Someone stood there lining them up

Crying till the words went thin

Tears blurred every price tag

Still, the old man paid it all in

With a wallet down to almost nothing

He laughed like he’d already won

Guess what, tonight it’s ramen again

Yeah, ramen till the morning comes

East to west, if he hears a name

Someone’s stuck, someone’s in pain

No hesitation, he runs right in

Buys it all, every single thing

Shopping boogie, shopping boogie

Shopping boogie all night long

With a “nothing’s wrong” kind of face

He hides his smile behind his age

Chest puffed out like it’s nothing special

But pride’s written on every page

Unsold vegetables from a farmer’s stand

“Come on, come on,” he waves his hand

Throws out dumb excuses, jokes too long

Buys everything at the asking price

Wallet’s empty, not a coin in sight

Guess what, tonight it’s ramen again

Yeah, ramen tastes just fine tonight

East to west, if he hears a name

Someone’s stuck, someone’s in pain

No hesitation, he runs right in

Buys it all, every single thing

Shopping boogie, shopping boogie

Shopping boogie all night long

Guess what, tonight it’s ramen again

East to west, the same old game

If there’s trouble, he’s already gone

Buying hope till the money’s gone

Shopping boogie, shopping boogie

Shopping boogie, shopping boogie
