Sale Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
well There’s something goin’ down
Just A few miles south of town.
Their recruiting is intense.
Their ads are building the suspense.
It’s a way to make some cash
With things from seasons past.
“Yeah. I’ve got some stuff to sell.
What’s that? You need some help?”

[Bridge]
This sale will be a chance for me
To help my friends and maybe see
A bunch of moms enjoy themselves
By calmly browsing all the shelves.

[pre-chorus]
Just remember there are rules.
This ain’t the old Wild West.
You’ve gotta keep it quiet.
Play it close to the vest and keep it…

[chorus]
Just between friends!
Come one and all.
The cattle call
Goes out and brings them in.

It never ends!
It’s wall to wall
Each spring and fall.
This nightmare that I’m in.

[pause]

[verse 3]
They asked me if I’d help them
And how could I say no?
I really love a garage sale.
So, how badly could this go?
They probably don’t need MUCH help…
An hour, or maybe three.
Of course I’ll go and help them…
And then maybe shop for me.

[Bridge]
It seemed like it would be so fun,
But my third shift is finally done.
My legs are sore.
my feet are dead.
I need some Advil for my head.

[brief instrumental]

[Verse 4]
This place is like a circus
There are women everywhere.
They’re selling everything in sight.
Wait…is that underwear?
Where do these people come from?
And what’s all that CRAP OVER there?
Are they selling it or buying it?
Man.
I need some air.

[pre-chorus]
Just remember there are rules.
This ain’t the old Wild West.
You’ve gotta keep it quiet.
Play it close to the vest and keep it…

[chorus]
Just between friends!
I want to run.
I think I’m done.
I’m tired and want some food.

It never ends!
But I won’t pout.
I’ll just slip out.
I don’t want to be rude.

Friends!
I changed my mind.
Where can I find
Some clothes for boys size 8?

Let’s make amends!
I’m coming back.
I had a snack.
I guess I’ll be home late.

[outro]
Oh What a mess.
There’s so much stress.
You say you’re having fun???

I feel so tired.
And uninspired.
Can’t wait ‘til this thing’s done.

Is Daylin here??
He was last year.
I think he came to shop.

He may have been.
But not again.
You people must be stopped.

[instrumental]
