lyrics

She took a look at the bulletin board
She found quarter on the floor
When she ducked to picked it up
She faked out the automatic doors

Stepped inside and just to the right she found one of those little machines
Where ya turn the knob left just to see what ya get
And out popped a little magic ring

Oh lord wish She would’ve bought a magazine...
Oh lord wish she would’ve bought anything...

Went around to the bakery counter
For some Fresh cinnamon bread
They were fresh out and as it turned out they had some shitty brand instead

Nice lady said they dont make it anymore
She got me feeling like a dinosaur
Oh boy!

And now I’m singing the blues
I never thought this would happen to me
Oh lord It can’t be! Give me a sign or a clue...
I can tell it was a magic spell
But I ain’t got proof

She dropped a dime in the check out line coulda sworn she said some magic words
Suddenly a stone like in Indiana Jones started rollin
But wait it gets worse

It burst through the wall and we ran down the hall but we were just too slow
It must’ve rolled downtown cuz here we are now and man it feels like the twilight zone

Where the heck is Sputnik and savoia’s t’go, Off the alley, Tom’s and the rest of ridge road?

And now I’m singing the blues
I never thought this would happen to me
Oh lord it hit me! am I missing a tooth?
Well I must have missed a trick
Cuz my whole hometowns gone poof!

Oh Revelation revelation at Walts grocery store
I woke up on the ground to the sound of “clean up on aisle four”

Without any explanation - did I dream the whole thing?
Reached inside my pocket found a little plastic ring
