Gladys the Welcome Wizard Lady is Here

Miss Gladys the Welcome Wizard lady is here She is full of sass, beyond an insane level of cheer No one wants to let her in, we try to ignore the bell She climbs in the front window, demolishing the sill. Hi we say, faking a smile, pretending to be pleased. She retains weird enthusiasm, her pitch a little wheezed. We are yawning through her brochure-filled presentation She feigns happiness, another welcome wizard celebration. She gets paid for every family whom she annoys On the way out, she stubs her toe on one of baby’s toys We did not apologize, maybe this is why she is suing But judge, we argue candidly, her getting in was not our doing.
