don't judge a single by its cover

i went to sonic boom
three times today
all three times i made purchases
the past couple of years
i've done the entire circuit
of independent record stores in the city
but it poured and i have a faltering knee
i spent about half as much today
as i did a year ago
i just can't help but love the exclusivity
i found a deerhunter seven inch
limited to 800 copies worldwide
the only reason it was still there
on my third visit of the day
was because it wasn't clearly labeled
nowhere on the cover does it say deerhunter
it just says the song title memory boy
i had it in my hands the first time around
and like so many others
i passed it by
after doing some research
i panicked and ran back to the store
they still had several passed over copies
so many people are going to kick themselves
that was such a good find
i might even open it tonight
and take a needle to it
