Black Friday Song

I woke up at two a.m. bundled up and hit the car
And went down to get in line at the local Wal-Mart
Don't need to hit the potty because I'm wearing Depends
I'm fully prepared to be one to contend
For that super hot deal with only limited supplies
That super hot deal with only limited supplies
I'm wearing goggles to protect my eyes
I'm wearing goggles to protect my eyes
Because you never know what kind of cheating and lies
People will do not to pay full price

Christmas is only a month a way
And it won't be cyber Monday for three days
Although it may lead to moral decay
The spirit of the season starts on Black Friday

Wal-Mart was packed and I couldn't believe my eyes
When a riot broke out in gaming supplies
The new Xbox steering wheel was marked 19.99
Everyone was panicing because they only had five
The 21 inch TV's were already gone
Some were scrounging for change to put minutes on their phone
I got exactly what I went there to get
Even though I had to tase some lady in the chest
But that's just the way it is
Sometimes it happens that way
Just another casualty of Black Friday
