The Last Mall Lyrics

Artist: Steely Dan
Album: Everything Must Go

Attention all shoppers
It's Cancellation Day
Yes the Big Adios
Is just a few hours away

It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall

You'll need the tools for survival
And the medicine for the blues
The sweet treats and surprises
For the little buckaroos

It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall

We've got a sweetheart Sunset Special
And all of the standard stuff
'Cause in the morning-that gospel morning
You'll have to do for yourself when the going gets tough

Roll your cart back up the aisle
Kiss the checkout girls goodbye
Ride the ramp to the freeway
Beneath the blood orange sky

It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall

Are they talking about doomsday? "that gospel morning"?

No, not doomsday (King of the World was Apocalyptic, but not the Last Mall IMNSHO) The whole album is about the bubble popping and this recession. That includes malls closing down.
If it was Doomsday, I dont think people would be buying stuff, they'd be looting

"Yes the Big Adios"
"tools for survival"
"Kiss the checkout girls goodbye"
"blood orange sky"

Sorry, JB. It's Armageddon!
