I Think It Should Be Law

That every mattress store
should have people jumping on the beds

went into a store called untouchables
ran about touching everything

asked the staff of the pound store
how much everything cost

the guy that cleaned my suit was really dry

asked the staff at a store what they sold
couldn't give me exact details

i think it was a general store

went into one to buy paper and pen
the staff wouldn't move

meet everyone but Cher in one shop

asked if he sold cigarettes
he said he was a Tobogganist
and he sloped away
