Commercials
I saw a great commercial
But forgot what it was for.
I suppose it was a failure
On the advertising score.
For a catchy little lyric
Or a scene to make you cry
Should remind you of the product
That it’s hoping you will buy.
Certain ads are quite obnoxious,
With a jingle that you dread,
But in many cases they’re the ones
That stick inside your head.
To the advertising genius
Who outdid all other bids,
I commend you for the awful
1-800-Kars for Kids!*
*really 1-877-Kars for Kids
(altered for poetic purity!)
