‘Thank you for your ‘Special’ service’
‘Thank you for your service!’
People say to military vets
Without thinking twice
Paying their meals to forget
But in this year of covid-19
As truckers drive to stores
clerks greet them like heroes
As they disgorge their wares
They give them Lysol and hot wings
But big truck stops go one better
For every 50-gallon fill-up
They promise a real come-getter:
Called ‘A Free Trucker Special’*
A BBQ burger or one e-cig vapor
Plus what all now really crave
A free roll of toilet paper!
