It all starts with a junk drawer! (I wrote this for my brother Richard)
Put it in the junk drawer we will use it some time later! We all have one around the house somewhere.
Old broken washing machine and refrigerator! Keep those parts we might need a spare!
Save those old clothes in that bag, my size might change! I just know they will fit someday!
I don't even know what this is, it sure looks strange? Oh well, I'll save it anyway.
The back porch and basement are full to the ceiling from the floor! And the attic and the closets? Oh no don't open up that door!
What makes us such pack rats? We surround ourselves with all this stuff!
when are we going to reach that point, when we say enough's enough!
That time will probably never come, it's just the way we are!
And just so ya know the garage is full too! Who needs to park the car?
