When you want a shot or two?
Do you wind it with a watch-key
Like your father used to do?
How’d you like to hop a horse-car
Like you did long years ago?
Don’t an auto beat an ox-cart?
Well, I rather reckon so.
Do you argue that an hour-glass
Beats a Waltham all to smash?
Do you use the same old system
Keepin’ books ’n countin’ cash,
Do you trim a goose quill neatly—
When you want the ink to flow?
Don’t you think there’s been im­
provement
In the last decade or so?
Tell us, are you advertising
In the same old foolish way
“Cause it hasn’t «hanged in
years?”
Wouldn’t the pathos of such logic
Drive a billy goat to tears?
Hidden, lonesome and unread,
Like the sign upon the tomb­
stone
Telling folks that you are dead.
Wake up and take a tonic.
Bunch your hits and make a
drive,
Ran a page and change your
copy,
Advertise and keep alivel
— Endeavor.
