Love For Sale . . .

Irony and double entendre, it would seem, are alive and well down at our Walmart store. The price reduction banner in the contraceptive/indigestion department bring to mind a few songs of love and affection . . .

1. The first - and naughtiest is from the Cole Porter classic . . .

"Love for sale
appetizing young love for sale
if you want to buy my wares follow me and climb the stairs
love for sale"

2. The second, by a more loutish Bon Jovi . . .

"Well I wake up this morning I rolled out of bed
I felt like a dog who's been kicked in the head
Checked out my mail there was a letter that read
Love for sale, love for sale"

3. Not so sure? Try Talking Heads, who take it back to basics with . . .

"Push my button, the toast pops up
Love and money, gettin' all mixed up
And now love is here, c'mon and try it
I got love for sale, got love for sale"

4. Hmm, I can do that. Here's Agan's version . . .

"Love For Sale. Inside the orange pack
Satisfaction guaranteed. You'll keep coming back
Look for the little devil. Big smile upon his face
Get yours today. Then drop by your baby's place"

Hmm, think I'll stick with my day job.
