The Inconvenience Store
There is a place where you can find everything except what you are looking for
We have snacks that will make you gassy for your first date
CD players that only skip when the song you love comes on
Seeds that grow into roses that smell lovely only when you are in too much of a hurry to appreciate their perfume
We have the book that comes next after the one you can’t find time to read
A brand of cola that will give you hiccups everytime
A box of stale Life on sale for just three cents more than you have on you
This is the one and only Inconvenience Store
Never closed, you’re always welcome but the
Coupons expire right when you get to the door
We have the most delicious hot coffee that you will always spill
The local newspaper for a town you’ve never heard of
And the gallon of milk you were supposed to get but it expired yesterday
We used to have a poster of Murphy’s Law hanging on the wall
But the store burnt to the ground
We rebuilt it even bigger than before
Now people are calling it Life
But I still remember it as the Inconvenience Store
