don’t hit on the cute girl in the Salvation Army
just seriously, man, get it together
don’t hit on the cute girl in the Salvation Army
I know it seemed like a good idea at the time but
don’t hit on the cute girl in the Salvation Army
she’s shopping in a Salvo on a Wednesday at two
odds are she’s almost as messed up as you
you’re unemployed in your thirties
you scrape up ironic B-movies for kicks
you own ten copies of Jerry Maguire on VHS now
this is where life has deposited you
in Ilion purchasing something called
WARBUS: THE BUS THAT KILLS
and something called NINJA DESTROYER
for seventy-four cents each
can you even imagine
how weirdly desperate her life must be?
so don’t hit on the girl in the Salvation Army
I mean really you should
she’s goddamned hot
but you’re a coward
aren’t you?

this makes me hope you at least exchanged glances with her.

But what if she owned Warbus 2? You could have missed a double feature!
