Disco Kroger: Last Dance on Pharr Road
Across from Tongue & Groove, the aisles become a dance floor for Buckhead's late-night revelers, where glitter and groceries collide.
Lyrics
[Intro] Pharr Road at midnight, 1994 glows eternal. Tongue & Groove spills out its sequined survivors. [Verse 1] You stumble across the asphalt, heels clicking like castanets. Glitter dusts your shoulders, a constellation of last night's stars. The automatic doors sigh open, fluorescent baptism. Aisle three, frozen pizzas call like old lovers. [Chorus] Oh, Disco Kroger, where the glitter falls like snow. Carts waltz past the dairy case, milk jugs in hand. Buckhead's secret ballroom, 3 AM confessions. Groceries and grooves collide, under the humming lights. [Verse 2] Tongue & Groove's bass still pulses in your veins. You grab a Snickers, a Gatorade, remnants of the fever. A stranger in stilettos nods, shares a knowing smile. Glitter trails on the linoleum, mapping the night's chaos. [Bridge] Remember that opening night, 1994, when the doors first swung wide. Pharr Road became a bridge between beats and breakfast aisles. No judgments here, just carts and confessions. [Chorus] Oh, Disco Kroger, where the glitter falls like snow. Carts waltz past the dairy case, milk jugs in hand. Buckhead's secret ballroom, 3 AM confessions. Groceries and grooves collide, under the humming lights. [Verse 3] The cashier at register five, she's seen it all. Glitter in her hair from a hug at closing time. You push your cart out, back into the neon dawn. Pharr Road whispers, come back soon. [Outro] Glitter on the floor, eternal sparkle. Last dance on Pharr Road.
