Here you go, folks — Charles, I hope you can appreciate this:
“The legend of Clippy Jack”
Listen, children, to a story
That was written long ago,
‘Bout a super coupon clipper
and the market down below
In his hands there was the treasures
clipped inside a grimy envelope
and the snot nosed assistant manager
was ready, to look at them — and then say “NOPE!”
go ahead and clip your coupons
go ahead until you perspire
do it all the weekend
you can’t use them if they expire
There won’t be any cash value
come the redemption day
on the cashier tape roll
“No store doubling” was all it said
So the people in the line
sent a message to the jerk
can you please just get this done
the rest of us have to get to work
Came an answer from the whisperer
with all of you I will share
Hot dogs 2 for 1
an extra coupon is over here
go ahead and clip your coupons
go ahead until you perspire
do it all the weekend
you can’t use them if they expire
There won’t be any cash value
come the redemption day
on the cashier tape roll
“No store doubling” was all it said
Now the cashier cries with anger
You are gaming the system - fraud!
and he tore up all the coupons
and now we know he was then fired
Now they stood inside the line
In front of the cashier, whose face was red
Grabbed the coupon and read the fine print
“1 to a customer”
was all it said!
LOL! I’ll probably post that song parody in a future blog.
