There was a little fellow named Mikey who hung out
at the local grocery store.
The manager didn't know what Mikey's problem was,
but the boys liked to tease him.
The boys said he was two bricks short of a load or
two pickles shy of a barrel.
To prove it, sometimes the boys offered Mikey his
choice between a nickel and a dime. He always took
the nickel, they said, because it was bigger.
One day after Mikey grabbed the nickel, the store
manager got him off to one side and said:
"Mikey, those boys are making fun of you. They think
you don't know the dime is worth more than the nickel.
Are you grabbing the nickel because it's bigger
or what?"
Mikey said: "No sir, you see if I took the dime,
they'd quit doing it!"
