Lawn Dart by Ed's Redeeming Qualities

It was the 3rd of July & the weather was fine
Ed bought the hot dogs, the croquet set was mine
But the red ball was missing & three mallets were bent
Ed suggested lawn darts so to K-Mart we went

We looked by the yard games & we looked by the grills
But we couldn't find lawn darts by high water or hill
We talked to the sales clerk but she started to cry
She said they're off the shelves now & she told us both why

Chorus:
A kid was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
Her dad didn't see her & that's the worst part
She was was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
So they're now off the shelves at the K-Mart

Well we both felt so bad that we gave up the search
Ed went to bed & I went to church
Now we never grill hot dogs & we don't play yard games
Since we heard that sad story things just aren't the same

A kid was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
Her dad didn't see her & that's the worst part
She was was pegged in the head with a lawn dart
So they're now off the shelves at the K-Mart
