Some clever promoters
Came up with a scheme
To create a toy
Stuffed with some kind of bean
Everyone loved them
And started to save them
So they made limited editions
To make people crave them
How far from grace will our culture fall
If we no longer brag
Of a Monet on the wall
But boast of an original Radar the Bat,
Tusk the Walrus or Flips the Cat
The way that it’s going
You probably will see ’em
On display at the Getty Museum
