Estate Sale
Estate sale today, from 1 o'clock to 4
you go and get ready, i'll go start the car
better to be early, then we'll be the first in line
and you know how i love this, it's amazing what you'll find
(chorus)
going through dead people's houses
wonderful things they have collected
open the drawers and trunks and closets
don't leave a corner uninspected
I'll head for the kitchen you check out upstairs
old post cards and pens and blue fiesta ware
shaving mugs and winged eyeglasses, giant plastic pins
linen suits and flowered dresses, i'm so glad we got in
(repeat chorus)
They just don't make 'em like this
it's an incredible prize
we can hang it in the kitchen
she was just your size
it's a beautiful frame
and the picture's all right
salt and pepper airplanes
and that deco light
(repeat chorus)
Tonight we'll go home and sort through our array
we'll find the best spots to put things on display
you can't get this great stuff anymore, i don't know why
but i bet we'll make some young strangers happy when we die
(repeat chorus)
