Vegematic |
Fell asleep last night with the T-V on. |
Oh, what a dream I had. |
I dreamed I answered every single one of those late night mail order ads. |
And four to six weeks later, much to my surprise, |
The mailman came to my front door, and I couldn’t believe my eyes |
When he brought the Vegematic, and the Pocket Fisherman too, |
Illuminated illustrated history of life, |
And Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife, |
A bamboo steamer, and a Garden Weasel too, |
And a tie-dyed, dayglow souvenir shirt from Six Flags Over Burbank. |
The doorbell rang all morning and into the afternoon. |
I shook with fright as it rang all night to the light of the Master Card moon. |
There was Parcel Post in the pantry, and UPS in the hall, |
C O D’s to the ceiling, and I just couldn’t pay for it all. |
I got the egg scrambler, with a Seal-a-Meal carrying case, |
A set of presidential commemorative plates |
So I could eat my eggs off the President’s face, |
A Minute Mender, and a needle that’ll knit or crochet, |
And an autographed photograph of Rin Tin Tin at Six Flags Over Burbank. |
(same chords as 2nd verse:) |
I remembered I was dreaming, so I gave a mighty cheer. |
When I awoke, it was no joke, 'cause all that shit was here. |
So if you fall asleep with the TV on, let me tell you what to do: |
Tear the telephone out of the wall unless you want it to happen to you. |
You’ll get the Vegematic, and the Pocket Fisherman too, |
Illuminated illustrated history of life, |
And Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife, |
A bamboo steamer, and a smokeless ashtray too |
And an all expenses paid weekend for three at Six Flags Over Burbank |
