lyrics

I clipped the ad from page 53, of my boy's life magazine; and ordered the coolest thing.

No, not the plastic bug ice cube. Not the life-like dog poop. Or gum that turns mouths blue.

See through to all the nicest sets.
A peeping tom disguised in x-ray specs.

I had sent out all my funds; and been waiting for two months; check the mail every day.

Yes, the package finally came, but my dreams were all in vein; they turned out to be so lame.

I received some cheap black frames, with lenses so dark, they wouldn't even know my name.

I see one thing clearly now, I got ripped off.
