Flack's Tribute to Columbus Day
In fourteen-hundred and ninety-two,
Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
But in the year two-thousand and four,
Flack decided to sail some more!
To honor Columbus in an all new way,
I declared it National Game Hunting Day.
I got me some money, and hopped in my car,
and set out on a search for treasure afar.
On this chilly day, I tried to keep warma,
by finding a seven dollar Macintosh Performa!
I passed on the Mac, but then found a deal,
A fifty-cent copy of Blades of Steel!
As I keep looking, another stroke of luck -
A Super Scope 6, for only a buck!
It was found in a pile, among 20 others,
a big pile of Super Mario Brothers.
Copies of King's Quest, numbers one, two and three,
Three dollars apiece, too bad they weren't free.
The Fate of Atlantis, starring Indiana Jones,
could have been mine for the price of 10 bones.
MechAssault, Baseball, and a Zelda game too,
Ten dollars for each one? That simply won't do.
On this fine holiday, the games were a-plenty,
like a Playstation 2, marked down to one-twenty.
I kept finding deals, like right next to the door
I found a controller for the N64.
More shelves lie behind me, so I gave a whirl,
and for another five I found me a Toejam and Earl.
So although I didn't have a boat or a map,
I spent a little money and bought me some crap.
So to all you collectors, all I have to say,
Is I hope you have a wonderful Game Hunting Day!
