But I Want To Live In This Fairy Tale

Camelot came furnished with all utilities paid

the moat was a golf course and knights wore overalls,

each day would be enchanted

with the help of the free cable TV,

this was paradise according to the Time Share salesman

a world perfect and filled with affordable peace.

 

Between the brochure, video presentation,

special discounts and extra bonus package

it was magical and mystical

such a paradise to behold and sleep,

all for easily affordable monthly payments

so you could use it two weeks out of the year.

 

Course there were restrictions,

about when you could actually stay,

was given this long set of guidelines,

they were so complicated

nearly impossible to understand.

 

Each date I picked for my time of choice

there was some excuse

for why it was occupied,

somehow couldn’t get the man to appreciate

that I actually wanted to live

in this fantasy land for my paid for time

and not just hold the pamphlet.

 

The idea of occupancy

somehow got lost in the contract,

which I choose not to sign

happily leaving for somewhere

they truly let you live in that dream,

as he gave his sales pitch to the next customer

sure hope he let them use it for a change.
