My Little Shop Craze

You’ve heard of Little Shop 2 by now
There are 30 to collect
And it is the newest craze
That no one can forget.
Just one for $30
Oh, what a crazy bargain
Open the packet and what do you see
Fresh Peas, let’s go again.
I’ve only got one more to collect
Thickened Cream is all I long for
I scan the packet for my desire
There’s no Thickened Cream so I begin to implore.
The carts get filled with chocolate and Coke
My parents spend money until they are broke
I received a mini and felt Thickened Cream
Hooray my collection is complete, is it all a dream?
