DeGar Customer CompClaint Department
DI have nothing to compClain abGout
In faCct, I have nothing but goDod things to say
AbCout your comDpany toGday
LGet me begin by sayDing
That normCally, I avGoid your store like the plaDgue
But receGntly on a drDive to Dallas
My cCar broke down on the siDde of the road
In WeGst, Texas, not the direDction
But the toCwn calDled WeGst
It was the batGtery
I got a juDmp-start for free with my TriCple-DA caGrd
But the loGcal mom-and-pop garDage
Were unfortCunately unable to assDuage
My electGrical conundrum 'cause my cDar is not American-maGde
So still runGning from my earlier juDmp-start,
I drCove on down the road,
and for the fiDrst time in my life,
PraCying that I'd sDee a Wal-GMart
Now normGally your store is like a viDrus
Like Miley CyCrus
In a teDen magazine
EvGery five miles on the roDad,
Like a toCad
A monsCtrous amphDibian on the horGizon,
EntiCrely blocDking out the sGun
But toGday Murphy's Law was riding shoDtgun
I didn't sCee one
For 47D.5 miGles
And as I drGove into Lancaster, TeDxas
That alabCaster albatross arDose out of the darkness
And I crGied tears of joy as I drDove around the back
To the TiCre and LuDbe GarGage
And I jumDped out with my car still runGning
I asked a juGmp-suited employee if hDe could change my battery
But he didCn't have a smDile for mGe
He said, "FoGrty-five minute waDit"
But in foCrty-five minutes I was goDing to be late
To my veGry first show at Uncle CalvDin's Coffee House
At a chuCrch in nortDheast DalGlas
So I stGood under the late afternoon sDun
On the hCot asphalt
My car contDinued to run...
And I thoGught, "this is the end of the liDne..."
I was runCning out of gas
And runDning out of time
FiguGring I'd finish my daDys
In a Wal-CMart parking lot, in a heat-Dstroke haze
When an anGgel appeared at my siDde
And her nameC-tag read 'Angela,' she had piDty in her eyes
She said, "PuGll in to Bay number tDwo, and pCop your hood, and I'll sDee what I can do"
And she examCined the dimenDsions of my batGtery
Said, "YeCah, I think we have that. I'll go gDet it for you."
And the sGun began to feel like my friDend
And whCen she returned, she had toDols to lend
And AngGela and I worked siDde-by-side
As thoCugh we'd worked together since the daDwn of time
FiGve minutes later, whDen I tried to pay her,
She said, "PCay for the batDtery,
But yCou don't oDwe me anytGhing"
AGs I turned to leDave,
She said, "WrCite a letter to Wal-Mart
And teDll them what you think of me"...
So DeGar Customer CompClaint Department,
DI have nothing to compClain abGout
In faCct, I have nothing but goDod things to say
PleCase pass on my thanks to AngDela today
And yCou should giDve her a raGise...
And lCet her uDnioniGze
