Gary was wearing the shroud of Turin
He bought it on Monday afternoon
At the Methodist garage sale
And he chewed 'em down and got it for a dollar
He knows just how to get the best deal
Gary was working on guard at the pharmacy
He thought it was Monday afternoon
So he made plans
To wear the shroud to the riverboat casino
He knows just how to make a big scene
But you can't tell them how
You build your days to fit the frame
Of the dream you had that never came true
