Lyrics
- Homer:
- Hello, I'm Mr. Plow. Are you tired of having your hands cut off by snowblowers and the inevitable heart attacks that come with shoveling snow?
- Homer:
- Then call Klondike-5-3226. Call now and receive a free T-shirt.
- Lisa:
- But I'm a real tightwad. Can I afford this remarkable system?
- Homer:
- Absolutely. My prices are so low, you'll think I've suffered brain damage!
- Bart:
- You are fully bonded and licensed by the city, aren't you, Mr. Plow?
- Homer:
- (through the side of his mouth) Shut up, boy.
- (outside of the television, Homer snarls at Bart)
- Homer:
- So remember.
- Call Mr. Plow,
- That's my name.
- That name again is Mr. Plow.
- (commercial ends)
- Homer:
- Well, John Q. Driveway has our number. Now we play the Waiting Game. (pause) Aw, the Waiting Game sucks. Let's play Hungry Hungry Hippos.
