GIFT WITH PURCHASE / HEURISTICS INC
cute girl in the coffeeshop
she's often there
when i happen to stop
i'd love to ask her out someday
my birthday, i turn 30 today
her smile at me
gives me courage to say
go out with me tonight
she said she'd give me
a free gift with purchase
she said she'd give me
a date and maybe a kiss
"we had a great time out last night,
let's do it again"
she laughed and said "all right,
"but you need to purchase for the free gift"
then one day in late october
i bought a ring
she looked it over:
"now i'm getting the free gift instead"
she said she'd give me
a free gift with purchase
she said she'd give me
her life and seal it with a kiss
she still works at the coffee shop
and every day
i make a point to stop
and each day that we have each other is the gift

GIFT WITH PURCHASE / THE BLOODY HAMS
lyric by Leaf62
He spent his summer nights practicing all his quips
Just to get this special gal with loving in her hips
He’ bought her flowers, he bought her rings, Just to taste that honey
And when they’d finished that dirty dance she told him something funny
I am an honest gal and I have sworn to never lie,
There is a little something I feel I should clarify
You bought my love, and that is true, but I’ve something to confess
This little tight sweety package has a gift with purchase
She did confess
Gift with purchase
It’s quite a mess
Gift with purchase
He’d bought her love, but that‘s not all, much worse than kissin cousins
The burning in his inner realm had him all a fussin
Don’t judge a book by the cover his mamma had always said
Might not have been a scratching if she’d just gave gingerbread
He’d never had a gal so fine, but the itching was sincere
Torn between his love and his every present fear
Ah but the sweet smell of her hair soon brought lustfulness
He had to go back dispite that gift with purchase
She did confess
Gift with purchase
It’s quite a mess
Gift with purchase
He grew up with that motto that the customer is always right
But this little sweety could satisfy all night
He opted for that brand new customer protection plan
And reconciled with his pride, he was not less a man
He’d bought her rings, he bought her clothes, just to win her love
He bought himself something to, a special kind of glove
And it’s true they lived a happy life in excess
Now that they found a way to return the gift with purchase

GIFT WITH PURCHASE / THE COW EXCHANGE
V1
I wrote some lines
about a cola in disguise
who couldn't get drunk if he tried
in glasses
My friends said that
the words simply weren't up to scratch
leaving readers feeling so detached
they trash it
Bet I didn't buy it; the truth would prevail
so I sent it through the U.S. Mail
where a company evaluated me
and surely'd publish it if I paid'em
CHORUS
Sayin' "You've got a gift"
"You've got a gift" with purchase
(There's nothing you can't do when Benjamin's with you)
"You've got a gift"
"You've got a gift" with purchase
(You might write but money talks far louder in reviews)
V2
They pressed my poem
as well as hundreds not my own
All the commercialism shown:
so blatant.
It wasn't long
until I changed it to a song
then sent the demo tape along
to agents.
A rep called me back to say it killed
his eardrums and sent me a bill
But if i credit him a grand or two
he pledged to be the perfect shill
CHORUS
Sayin' "You've got a gift"
"You've got a gift" with purchase
(We'll keep on bouncing until your check does)
"You've got a gift"
"You've got a gift" with purchase
(We'll still be your groupies long as you pay us our rupies)
OUTRO
Whether monophonic sound or overused chords
Your currency buys off remorse
For thirty bucks they'll say I'm smooth
That's heaps preferred to hearing the truth
