Shopping Line

As I go through the store shopping,
                                   
you go through the store a hopping.
                                   
At check out~I have one thing,
                                         
a full cart you bring.
                                                         
Cannot you read,
                                                             
only up to ten things you need.
                                                         
So you think you are very special,
                                     
you are acting more like the devil.
