you all know the saying
that catchy gross saying that slips out every once and a while
it's that sad look you get from a family member, friend or complete stranger
that look of I know you have something that I want
and I want it right now
yet I catch a weird glance from you and wonder what your hiding
now I'm suspicious of you
and I'm not sure if you're telling the truth about what you're chewing
I know you have it
why can't you be a good friend and give me a piece
just one stinking piece is all I ask for
and what do I get as a response
I'm all out of normal gum
but I've got some ABC gum
do ya still want it
yeah I want a piece just give it to me already
alright they say back
and they reach into their mouth and pull out their gum
I look at it in disgust
what the heck are you pulling at
I don't want some chewed gum
but it's all I've got
it's called ABC gum
ya know Already Been Chewed. it's the good stuff.
