Garage Sale Confessions

Lyrics

[verse]
Am I available?
I think I am.

Do I think that I can volunteer?
Hm….I guess I can.

It really seems like lot’s fun
I think I’ll bring my van.

[Verse 1]
well There’s something goin’ down
A few miles south of town.
Their recruiting is intense.
And they’re buildin’ 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.

[pause]

[chorus]
Just. between. friends!

Come one and all…The cattle call
Goes out and brings them in.

[pause]
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 bad could this go?

They probably don’t need much help
An hour, or maybe three.
Of course I’ll go and help them…
And 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 there?
Are they selling it or buying it?
Man…I need some air.

[pause]
[chorus]
Just. between. friends!

I want to run…I think I’m done.
I’m tired and want some food.

[pause]
It never ends!

But I won’t pout…I’ll just slip out
I don’t want to be rude.

[pause]
Just. between. friends!

I changed my mind…Where can I find
Some clothes for boys size 8?

[pause]

Let’s make amends!

I’m coming back…I had a snack.
I guess I’ll be home late.

[pause]
Just. between. friends!

Is Daylin here?…He came last year
He might be here to shop.

[pause]
It never ends!

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

[instrumental]
