Two Bit Poem

I bought myself a duck I only paid a buck I would have given five If it had been alive I bought myself a porter I only gave a quarter But if they’d had a Schlitz I might have paid two bits I bought a penny pickle I had to pay a nickel The fellow thought me dense I hadn’t any cents

Hmmm...seems you had more money than sense, as my grandma used to say. Of course, if you save up, you can get the option in no time at all.
