Pretty Little Lies

Step right up folks Take a look inside This could all be yours someday we just reduced the price Just open and say awwww this wont hurt at all we do this all the time Ten percent off when you call Please just hold the line An agent will speak with you soon Your being transfered listen to our stand by tunes For a reasonable retainer we can make this disappear we will bill you when its over theres no need to fear This house has your name on it Just put your money down in time We will lend you all you need Just sign the dotted line This is the best phone on the market There are no hidden fees The monthly payments are so low You'll think you got it free. And so the spin continues A web put out to snare Every naive consumer Who walks in unaware.

Carl, you absolutely nailed it with this one. Everyone offering theoretical services for which they would have us trade irreplaceable life energy.
