Now,
Colin
Buchanan, life must be tough in this beautiful
country for us to all be so
downbeat about it.
What's the downside
of being so well off?
Alright.
Make sure you mention
Richard.
Okay.
Well, a little tune is here.
I've been inspired to write a little tune.
Well they hit the street like a wild stampede,
hungry mailbox mouths to feed, delivery kids
on well -worn tracks.
Give them out, never take them back.
Number 42's got angry dogs,
but that won't save him from catalogs.
Catalogs, every day,
catalogs are on their way.
You an d me can't beat the ogs,
can't hold back those catalogs.
Stuff that bundle in there first,
letterboxes fit to burst.
Knockdown deals all over the place,
pamphlets you could see from space.
Plagues of brochures ain't receding.
Man, I think these things
are breeding catalogues
Every day, catalogues are on their way
You and me can't beat the ogs
Can't hold back those catalogues
Oh, they know it, they wrote
it yesterday
Coupons, bargains, crazy prices
Promo -driven flyer crisis
Reams and reams for you and me
Home -delivered library
Mammon's
God, holy word of
God
Read the gospel catalogue
Go, catalogues,
you can't stop them
Catalogues, let's go shopping.
It's like
Noah and the flood.
We're drowning in the cata
logues here.
Catalogues, great for business.
Catalogues, here comes
Christmas.
They got so much stuff to flog.
And I got death by catalogues.
Thank
God it's
Friday.
