Half off everything in the store
is what you told me, and that’s
what I expect from this event.
Either you don’t understand me
or you want me to do something
that will compromise your life’s comfort.
What does that mean, you ask?
Well, I could do any number of things, really.
I could take a station wagon and park it
outside your house, blaring the horn
for six hours straight.
Sure, the neighbors would complain,
but the cops wouldn’t do anything about it.
You see, I’m a friend to law enforcement,
and when I tell them that you pulled
a bait and switch, they’ll let me blow that horn
all night long if I want to.
