A Five-Dollar Garage-Sale Record Player
A five-dollar garage-sale record player
A five-cent-piece Scotch-taped onto the arm
A plastic K-Mart special from long ago
A groovy thing for a junior high kid
But he was a thirty-something day-laborer
And in the silent cell of his solitude
Wanted to spin some tunes in the darkness
Just like he did when he was a junior high kid
A five-dollar garage-sale record player
Wagner, Sinatra, McKuen - and hope
