Poem
Who hexed the price? Made the bargain lose its luster Who’s selling dull kitchenware knives? Trying to cut away consumer confidence There’s no hand lotion in the ladies room, ain’t no winning boil in the big Lotto cauldron Can’t get no good juju from a synthetic broom, you shouldn’t bought the stockings with the run Superstitions got you banging your head on a mirror Unlucky shopper got you tossing your checkbook in a debt river And the cash back got snatched by a black cat selling snake oil in a makeshift shack Superstitious shopper when will you learn, never buy expired dated bulk Sales paper sulk ... misprints are a common tact, so don’t purchase things off the “No return” rack Who jinxed the sale? Made the register wave a red flag And you’re steaming mad, some manager changed the numbers on the coveted item price tag What janxed the espresso machine? Got you strolling thru the mall cutting the cheese ... passing the beans Superstitions got you swiveling your head like a spinning top Unlucky shopper got your wobbly cart rolling over the foot of a mall cop Another search down a wrong aisle, another inexplicable credit denial Superstitious shopper when will you learn, not to buy the candles that don’t burn And the fine print said: no frequent flyer miles were earned You just bought yourself seven more years of back luck that can’t be returned
