You're Gonna Lose That Mall is a set of lyrics composed by Specialist290 to the tune of the Beatles' song You're Gonna Lose That Girl. As with his other works, this song was inspired by a particular incident, or, rather, two particular incidents--the song's idea was conceived immediately after the second fall of Caiger Mall, while most of it was written during and after Mall Tour '07's siege of Stickling Mall.

The song's theme is one common to Malton--a group of zombies is laying siege to an unnamed mall. As this is going on, the "speaker" is instructing a fellow survivor as to the proper course to take during such an emergency. Additionally, the speaker also warns of dire consequences should his advice not be followed.

Lyrics

You're Gonna Lose That Mall
(To the tune of "You're Gonna Lose That Girl," by the Beatles)

You're gonna lose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna looose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)

If you don't keep them out tonight, you're gonna wake up dead. (*You're gonna wake up dead*)
You'd best be staying in tonight and barricade instead. (*I'll barricade instead*)
You're gonna lose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna looose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)

If you don't build that 'cade tonight, you're gonna find it gone (*You're gonna find it gone*)
'Cause then they'll take it down and then you're the unlucky one (*Such an unlucky one*)
You're gonna lose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna looose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna loooooose... (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)--

They'll make a point of taking it away from you; (*That's what they'll do*)
They're only zombies--what else can they do?

*guitar solo*

You're gonna lose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna looose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna loooooose... (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)--

They'll make a point of taking it away from you; (*That's what they'll do*)
They're only zombies--what else can they do?

If you don't keep them out tonight, you're gonna wake up dead. (*You're gonna wake up dead*)
You'd best be staying in tonight and barricade instead. (*I'll barricade instead*)
You're gonna lose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna looose that Mall, (*Yes, yes, you're gonna lose that Mall*)
You're gonna loo-oose that Mall!
