SCALPER STATE OF MIND
(parody of "New York State Of Mind" by Billy Joel)
by John Thorpe, a.k.a. SNAPMAN (snap_man@ix.netcom.com)
 
 

Some kids like to buy a toy, take it out and play with the neighbor kids
Stage a fight with a Slave Leia or a Harley Quinn.
I'm driving a grey van to go stand and wait in line.
I'm in a scalper state of mind.
 
I've bought all the new Star Wars and the Hot Wheels cars and Beanie Babies,
Been hidin' the figures under the toy displays,
But I know what I'm buying and I don't want to waste a dime.
I'm in a scalper state of mind.
 
It was so easy selling toy by toy
Out of touch with the market and reviews,
But now I need the Investmentary,
The Tomart Guide, Action Figure News...
 
It comes down to its rarity - and it's goin' with me 'cause it's hard to find,
Don't care if it's K-Mart or Service Merchandise,
I don't buy no peg warmers, I've left them all behind.
I'm in a scalper state of mind.
