Hair Care
 
While waiting for old Ed at Ed's House of Hair Repair
Brownie heard Ed say, "Should I put a new coffee pot right there?
 
After all" continued Ed, "this shop needs a change, I swear,
perhaps Latte', while you wait, for a cut extrordinaire,
 
we've got to modernize and keep you cowboys square.
Sophisticate your palette about all the new hair care."
 
Old Brownie sat and thought awhile, pondering the snare,
of imported coffee brewing up, while waiting for the chair.
 
"Ed." he said, "I believe it's true, I need to be aware,
but if that's what you've got in mind, this thought is what I'll share,
 
I don't come here for your coffee, nor to eat a Creme Eclair
I just want to hear the clippers hum,
 
while you cut my dad-blamed hair."
