I'd Rather Have

Going to stores can be dangerous,

and looking at the ads

that come in a bag on Tuesday night

can be just as bad.

I thought I had what I needed.

I thought I had enough.

But when I looked around I found

some pretty awesome stuff.

I want a high-tech tablet.

I want some cuter shoes.

I want a box to wind the hose

and paint in pretty hues.

All this stuff would be so nice,

but you know what's funny?

When I come home (and close the ads)

I'd rather have my money.
