Estate Sale

Estate sale today from one o'clock 'til four

You go and get ready, I'll go start the car

Better to be early then we'll be the first in line

And you know how I love this, it's amazing what you find

Going through dead people houses

Wonderful things they have collected

Open the drawers, the trunks, the closets

Don't leave a corner uninspected

You head for the kitchen, I'll check out upstairs

Old postcards and pens and blue fiesta ware

Shaving mugs and winged eyeglasses, giant plastic pins

Linen suits and flowered dresses, so glad we got in

Going through dead people houses

Wonderful things they have collected

Open the drawers, the trunks, the closets

Don't leave a corner uninspected

They just don't make 'em like this, it's an incredible price

We could hang it in the kitchen, he was just your size

It's a beautiful frame, the picture's alright

Salt and pepper airplanes, ooh, that deco light!

Going through dead people houses

Wonderful things they have collected

Open the drawers, the trunks, the closets

Don't leave a corner uninspected

Tonight we'll go home and sort through our array

We'll find the best spots to put things on display

You can't get this great stuff anymore, I don't know why

But I'll bet we make some young strangers happy when we die

Going through dead people houses

Wonderful things they have collected

Open the drawers, the trunks, the closets

Don't leave a corner uninspected

Going through dead people houses

Wonderful things they have collected

Open the drawers, the trunks, the closets

Don't leave a corner uninspected
