about

Last Minute Shopper is a cute and funny synth-pop song with a little bit of metal guitar and some sweet harmonies about the pressure and chaos of trying to get your Christmas shopping done under the wire.

lyrics

I’m a last minute shopper
Get out of my way
I’m a Last minute shipper
I Don’t have time to stop and talk today
I Should’ve finished long ago but
Now I’m driving out in the snow
I’m a Last minute shopper
Get out of my way

December 21st, I’m at the mall
Thought I checked my list twice, thought I had it all
There’s just one gift I have yet to find
The only thing between me and a perfect Christmas night

CHORUS

December 23rd, trying to keep my cool
Back at the mall I spot, someo ne I new back in high school
I should’ve ran, I should’ve hid,
Gotta keep shopping but I’m stuck here looking at pictures of their kids

CHORUS

December 24th, it’s 9pm
I finished my list, can’t wait to get home and crawl right into bed
When I get in my car, my phone starts to ring
“Hey since you’re already at the mall, could you pick up one more thing?”

CHORUS

“A hook and synth-laden wall of sound decorated with memorabilia from 70s punk rock, 80s new wave, 90s club music and, well, just about anything else you can think of! With a timeless showmanship and knack for comedic timing, this two-person outfit is guaranteed to start a full-on dance party with or without you.” – Shawn Petsche, Sled Island Music Festival Promoter ... more
