I&#8217;ll tell you, I might have to pour myself another little moonshine&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Here we go:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>It was a sweet and frosty May,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>In the town of Thunder Bay,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>When Dale and Wendy Day went out to Sweetbrush Lake.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Found a weeping willow to sit down and do the Thunder Bay\u00a0<\/strong><strong>a go-go,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>While the wind was real soft.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Poor little Wendy just had to break.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Later on that month,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Dale went for Pepper lunch at the \u00abwe&#8217;re-all-in-this-together diner\u00bb.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Yeah, the pea soup was fine,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>The corn cob on time,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>The chili dogs even finer.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>The real reason was that Wendy was working counter.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Those two little kids just couldn&#8217;t get enough of each other.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Dale broke out like a man and said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>\u00abWendy I think I want to take your hand and make little children, live beyond the sand.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>In respect to the clouds and the colony of your eyes, that day we made love,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>I&#8217;m going to call my little child Amber Jones\u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Which is exactly what happened.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>There ain&#8217;t no genie in the bottle, or in that magazine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Let me ask you one question, and it goes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Hey supermodel,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>What&#8217;s it like being pretty?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Now everyone knows that if you&#8217;re going to run a successful caf\u00e9,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>You have to hire the prettiest waitress.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Amber it turns out had been working at the Pepperlunch caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>just like her second mother did 20 years earlier,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And it boils down to this very simple doctrine,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Given by Ralph Habbasham the owner:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Ralph says the customer is always right,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And the customers here are mostly men,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And though it don&#8217;t seem,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>&gt;From table 2 to 16,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>All men do is dream:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Of falling in love, just like women.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Now sitting at table 20 was a man from New York city<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>who was most impressed with Amber&#8217;s poses.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>He said, \u00abCome over here missy, I gots a kind of proposition,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>that is, if you&#8217;re willing to listen.\u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>There ain&#8217;t no genie in the bottle, or in that magazine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Come with me.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Hey supermodel . . .<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">(&#8230;the backstage&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And she was just everywhere!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>I mean little girls wanted to be like her,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Little boys wanted to be with her,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And even mothers somehow altered their physique<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>just to be a little close to what Amber represented.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>One day Amber, who likes the Sweetbrush diner where she used to work,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>really missed those coconut cake cucumbers,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And made out with one giant missile on the top of her forehead.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Poor little Amber couldn&#8217;t do a thing about it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>And her poor career went kinda downhill<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>as the people outside her hotel room penthouse cried out&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Well, you know what they cried out:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Hey supermodel, set the rest of us free.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p
