All about the music

I'd go to Waterstone's if I wanted a book.
If I wanted a t-shirt I'd head to New Look.
I'm after the song I can't get out of my head.
You offer me DVD box sets instead.
You've got chocolate now at the point of sale.
(When did music become the Holy Grail?)
The hardware for listening is all around.
Big headphones, small headphones, i-pods abound.
X-boxes, Playstations, PSP, Wii,
the games, the controllers, the white steering wheels.
What keeps me returning time after time?
What keeps me believing that one day I'll find
a music shop full of variety,
the way I remember the old HMV?
You're still playing songs that make me stop and listen,
and ask the cute guy with the pony tail - 'Who's this,then?'
