My Grocery List

I write these down and say:
"Hey, mom, when you're at Herbies
Can you pick up a few things for me?

I want a special scent that's all my own;
I'm tired of being odourless

I want somebody to love me,
I want one of those things
That will make me love back.

Can you get me an appliance
That adds four years life experience,
Automatically, fully guaranteed?

I want a recepie for calm and poised,
And a little cap to make me crazy.

I'd like a crystal ball to let me see the past.

Thanks, mom. I'll pay you back soon, I promise.
