To the tune of Walking In A Winter Wonderland.

Little trains by the dozen,

Some were bought from my cousin.

I'm spending my dough,

For things HO

The layouts making me go quickly broke.

 

On the 'net,

there's a Pacific

With details quite specific.

It'll cost me my wife, my job and my life

The layout's making me go quickly broke.

 

In the basement, I've got multi-levels

Of lumber, track, and boxcars painted brown.

A friend asks, "Are you finished"?

Later on, I'll re-wire,

Where a short caused a fire.

Then I'll spread static grass 'tl it comes out my ----

The layout's making me go quickly broke.

The layout's making me go quickly broke.

and, to crown their disgraceful proceedings and add insult to injury, they threw me over the Niagara Falls, and I got wet.

From Mark Twain's short story "Niagara"
