The list

Intro:     

      
I'm sitting in the minivan, it's about 1 am
  
I can't believe I'm hanging out with Margo Roth Spiegelman
       
She hands me a grocery list, and I say: 'what is this?'
                                                       
She gives me a hundred dollars and says: that should cover it



3 whole Catfish, Wrapped separately
   
a six-pack of mountain dew, Tissues and some Veet
   
a dozen Tulips, a Bottle Of water
                                               
a Can of blue Spray paint, a giant tub of vaselineeeee



She told me about the Vaseline, very specifically
                                                          
there's a baby size, a mommy size and a big fat daddy

the daddy is the one I need, I don't know why I need it
                                                   
but you don't argue with Margo Roth Spiegelman, I agree

I walk up to the door of the grocery store
                                                    
preparing myself for all the weird looks that I'm in for
         
I mean, what do you do when the cashier looks at you
                                                  
and you got those assorted items sitting there in front of you
