Loading...

[13*3138, spoken]:
and the first thing they did was seperate me

[chorus of miss coopers]:
…startling beautiful people…
(…people… startling… beautiful…)
…startling beautiful people…
(…people startling… beautiful…)

[13*3138]:
we met on training day
she asked if i was scared

[another girl, spoken]
hey. you scared?

[13*3138]:
i said yes. she said
she’d thought she was prepared
i took her hand and on we marched
our thoughts unshared
…i never saw her again

[chorus of miss coopers]:
…startling… beautiful…
[13*3138]:
miss cooper smiled and asked
what floor was my purview?

[chorus of miss coopers]:
just say “books”

[13*3138]:
i said “books”
i didn’t know what else to do

[one miss cooper]:
13*3138 here belongs with you

[13*3138]:
and so they’d take me again

then, they taught me
a hundred hours or more
showed me what they got me
a custom yellow pad
as we descended to the floor

[all the miss coopers]:
startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper in menswear”
[male voice]:
comp. keep for ref. cust. d.a. no. or
ct. no. salesbook no. salescheck no
clerk no. dept. date m
duplicate, triplicate, and throw it away

[13*3138]:
i learned to punch the clock
and bow before its power
oh, that metal prophet
counting down the hour!
and when miss cooper came
i’d nod, or sometimes cower
what was my real name again?

oh, they got me
a hundred days a week
no, this is not me —
but i eat my yellow pad in case i ever dare to speak

[all the miss coopers]:
don’t speak
startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper in menswear”
comp. keep for ref. cust. d.a. no. or
ct. no. salesbook no. salescheck no
clerk no. dept. date m
duplicate, triplicate, and throw it away

startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper —

[one miss cooper]:
that one there”

[all miss coopers]:
locker number?

[13*3138]:
seventeen*seventy*three

[all miss coopers]
time clock number?

[13*3138]:
seven*twelve

[all miss coopers]:
cash box number?

[13*3138]:
thirteen*thirty*six

[all miss coopers]:
cash register number?

[13*3138]:
two*fifty*three

[all miss coopers]:
cash register*drawer number?

[13*3138]:
k

[all miss coopers]:
cash register*drawer*key number?

[13*3138]:
eight*seventy*two

[all miss coopers]:
department number?

[13*3138]:
thirteen
i wrote my numbers down
that was my first day

[everyone]:
startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper in menswear”

startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper —
that one there”

startling beautiful people
in tailored suits and short*clipped hair
miss cooper tells miss cooper
“go to miss cooper —
i’m sure she’s somewhere”

[13*3138]:
until the night, i tripped
and tumbled down the stair
i kicked an exit open —
sirens, everywhere
i stood and said out loud
“i never saw you there”

[some miss coopers]:
comp. keep for ref. cust. d.a. no. or
c.t. no. salesbook no. salescheck no
no no no no no…

[13*3138]:
i didn’t go back again

i wrote macy’s a long letter and i signed it with all my numbers added together and divided it by 130,000 which is the number of employees at macy’s

…i wonder if they miss me
