I say medicine for sell
come to my bench you dirty wench
I've got a cure for smell

did your mother drop you on your head
quite lop sided you are
well fret not loppy
just try 'n' stop me
from making you look like a star

mmm whats that son
oh don't be silly
I'm not the devil at all
I'm selling dreams and candy cane wishes
and all for a minimal cost

so come one and all , don't dare to stall
this bargain is more like a steal
and don't you forget the name Monty Banks
the name that makes all your dreams real

the moral is don't believe what commercials say
because the huge coporations behind them would
murder your puppies for a nickel. Well I put this under
humorous but I guess thats not funny is it. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 7 [informant] => doug [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 13 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => HumorPoetry )

LMAO. I loved it, I could see some one actually saying this stuff, some scoundrel looking to make a quick buck, sadly, more and more people are becoming mountebanks of one form or another.
