When they closed the last shopping mallnCrickets sang in crumbling wallsnTermites ate through the doorsnAnd rabbits hopped along the floorsnThe empty shelves swarmed with beesnCash machines sprouted weedsnLizards crawled the parking lotnSwallows flew the empty shopsnAnd there was peace in the valley once againnnPlants grew up the mannequinnLeaving him with leafy skinnClear plastic eyes fell to the floornAnd were carried off by wild boarsnAll the mirrors cracked in halfnWhen wild horses galloped pastnAnd morning doves built their nestsnOn the escalator stepsnAnd there was peace in the valley once againnnAnd there was peace in the valleynOnce again
