Meet You At Menards - Original Apocolyptic Ukulele Song

Based on true events.


Meet You At Menards
by Lisaxy424

Intro: C E7 Am F G7

C-G-Am-F
One day, we were talking 'bout the current state of the world.
And all the things that were affecting every man, woman, boy and girl.
Serious stuff like global warming, terroism, swine flu
So we came up with a plan so we'd both know what to do.

E7-Am
In the event that all the electronics die at the same time,
and we can't call to tell each other that we're fine.
F-C-F-G7
It'll be OK, because of the plan we made today
Just follow these directions, and your life might be saved...

CHORUS: C-E-F-G7
I'll meet you at Menards,
if the world comes crashing down.
Menards,
so we cover the same amount of ground.
Menards,
is the midpoint between our jobs.
Menards,
will be our safehaven from the zombie mobs.

C-G-Am-F
We sat down with a map and found the center of our routes
And made sure to pinpoint a place in case of any doubts.
It just so happened to be a moderatley-priced hardware store,
but in case of a global emergency, could you really ask for more?

E7-Am
They've got pre-made bomb shelters and first-aid gear
Come to think of it, they have everything here.
F-C-F-G7
In my cart, you'd find a shovel and an axe.
Cause if I've learned anything from movies - they ward off all attacks.

CHORUS

Cm-G7
But if the apocolypse comes, and we fulfill our plan.
And we're standing in the store, frightened, hand in hand.
F-C-F-G7
But since we're already here, I saw the cutest little tiki lights from their ad in the mail
I mean, if the world is really ending, they will probably be on sale...

CHORUS

G7
Save your life at Menards.

Who says Apocolyptic planning can't be simple and fun? Keep that Ukulele in your bug out bag. (you need to have seen Menards advertisements over past 25+ years to fully appreciate this). Awesome, and many great homages in there.

The Menards corporation should totally use this as their new jingle. Way catchier than "save big money at Menards."

[zukonin235]

hey lisaxy424 I work at menards Im the guy awhile back who asked you to do some floyd songs on your uke, I can't believe you wrote a song about my workplace

[LeviJones88]

This is my new favorite song!

[004marcus004]

[KeeperofTheMountain]

I guess they can stop digging that bunker in my back yard now. I think I'm going to die laughing!

[bruss01dslextreme]

Great song - CUTE GIRL! Love to have her in my bunker!

[ThePapaO12]

OH THAT IS TOO FUNNY! I have a spot for you and your friend at my retreat ..... if you can make it to central PA from Menards through the zombie biker mobs heh heh!

[YounaTuber]

ROFL Seriously though- that's not even funny. Menards is my favorite store. I even do half of my grocery shopping there. LOL This really made my day. Do you realize how good it feels to step back from all the prepping, put your hands on your hips with a grin as you survey the goods and say, "Thanks for saving me so much money, Menards!" It feels great. Trust me. I've said it. hehe 5*!

[nicolasvanpassel]
