Julia really did work in the check out... but now she is a florist.

lyrics

Julia works on the checkout (chicken soap and bean sprouts) Julia knows every special on today
Julia I must confess you're looking good in your new world dress, Julia whatever the price I'll pay...

Cos I'm tired of waiting in this line
Julia check me out I'm in your check out line
I don't want a discount, I'll pay by EFTPOS
Julia, Julia, when do you get off?

Julia's on the minimum wage
She gets paid peanuts at her age
Julia spends it all on American clothes
I her purse there's a photograph
Of a heart throb in her class
Some day it'll be me, I suppose

Cos I'm tired of waiting in this line
You're checkin everybody out, look at me I'm fine
I don't want your body
I just want your name tag
Julia, Julia, what's in your new world bag?

Julia lives with her parents, lives a life of suspense
What's going to happen next on Shortland street
Working like a human slave
Can't dig this supermarket grave
Julia's going to throw it all in for me

Cos she's tired of working in the line
Checking cheque IDs, Selling baked beans and wine
She doesn't want a miracle, just wants what she's worth
Julia, Julia, it won't come on this earth
