The twelve days of shopping
On the first day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
A kick in the knee
On the second day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the third day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the fourth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the fifth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the sixth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the seventh day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Seven missed red lights
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the eighth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Eight line up butt-ins
Seven missed red lights
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And an kick in the knee
On the ninth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Nine slush showers
Eight line up butt-ins
Seven missed red lights
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the tenth day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Ten store clerk attitudes
Nine slush showers
Eight line up butt-ins
Seven missed red lights
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the eleventh day of shopping
A stranger gave to me
Eleven beggars begging
Ten store clerk attitudes
Nine slush showers
Eight line up butt-ins
Seven missed red lights
Six tongue lashings
Five dirty looks
Four un-held doors
Three yelled curses
Two rough shoves
And a kick in the knee
On the twelfth day of shopping
I said screw it and stayed home
Jingle hell
Dashing through the slush,
Around taxis in the way
Foot deep in dirty mush
Cursing all the way
Bells on beggars ring
Pedestrians scream in fright
What fun it is to spend and sing
A spending song tonight
Oh, credit cards, credit cards
Spending all the way
Oh what fun it is to shop and spend
Until the banks take it all away
Credit cards, credit cards
Spending all the way
Oh what fun it is to shop and spend
Until the banks take it all away
A little while ago
I went shopping out of pride
Society makes me spend
MasterCard sitting by my side
The interest rate was high
Around 26%
January’s bills are on nigh
Oh, how much have I spent?
Oh, credit cards, credit cards
Spending all the way
Oh what fun it is to shop and spend
Until the banks take it all away
Credit cards, credit cards
Spending all the way
Oh what fun it is to shop and spend
Until the banks take it all away
Hey!
