in A-V.
Current events, ancient history,
latest mysteries, Stephen King --
anything.
You want it, we got it:
books on tape,
on CD-ROM;
music and art ala carte.
Books here, getcher books!
Got magazines too;
newspapers --
ain't no finer bird-cage liner --
right here, got 'em right here:
getcher books.
Sick 'n' tired of
the information superhighway?
Getcher books at
the information parking lot!
Rent by the semester!
No charge --
just bring 'em back on time:
getcher books!
Want science? We got science.
Reference? We got reference.
Poly sci? Bali Hai?
Catcher in the Rye?
Values of pi?
We got 'em: rock bottom
books.
They're what we got:
you really ought
to try 'em --
books.
We got books here.
