Wrong Aisle


Behold the beguiled,
they're the ones who always
walk down the wrong aisle
It doesn't take much to catch their eye,
offer a free sample they might like to try
Hook 'em with the line
of an exclusive tour
Dangle a small prize as the shiny lure
You can always get 'em to buy
something they didn't come there for
And when they're waiting
in the checkout aisle,
make sure you flash
your most fetching smile
It's the deal clincher they simply can't ignore
Snag 'em and bag 'em
Then send 'em to your other store
