"Mama quick, Mama come here, listen to the tune so clear, it's not anything I have so far can daddy take it out to the car? Buy me, get me don't upset me." Wooden box topped in slats woolen sox worn on gifted brats box contains a tune wrapped inside issues from within, where it hides.. "buy me, get me I entreat thee." A seasonal gift...snow crested drift wooden tongues carved in eager thriftiness luxurious song emanates from vibrated wood if only xylophones would be hammered as good... buy me, get me don't upset me!" A child ogles on, detects its delicate chime recognizes it to differ from the metallic kind tugs his mothers skirt at its would be hem "could I have this for Christmas then?" buy me, get me don't neglect me!!" "Oh, no cries the mother in full defense just bought you a gift with full recompense you're especially treated, for the season presses but my pocket book is emptied by the holiday stresses!" bye me, get me don't forget me I'll be so good on Christmas day you won't have to pack my toys away!"
