What a funny thing

from Pareidolia by Bob Gaulke

/

lyrics

Went to the store filled my cart
Tomatoes on sale so was the cod
Frozen treats a new yogurt
Lady next door there with her dog

Got behind a man with cans of spam
At the register I opened my wallet
Funny thing happened; there was nothing in it
Embarrassed as the girl voided the purchase

What a funny thing to live in a dream
To spend your life spending everything
Little reminders come too late
Without a script and an audience there

Said I’d be right back I was mortified
Left the bags there with my pride
Said to myself “never again”
-But there are so many books and records to be had

Need to order that new box set
Guess I’ll have to float the rent again
Cancel that date open the tuna
That I’d been saving for times like now

What a funny thing the world produces
Flown in daily from all continents
Under lights on display
For us to consume without thinking about it
