    Default I've Been Everywhere, Man! (Kmart lyrics)

    With all the flurry about Kmarts nationwide (looking for G1 Soundwave/cassettes and Netflix Soundwave), I thought I'd make a small dedication to the impressive travel efforts of some OTCA members.

    To the tune of I've Been Everywhere, Man!, play it Soundwave!

    I've been every Kmart
    I've called every Kmart
    The service counter hates me
    My figure's always sold out
    I really hate exclusives
    I've been everywhere

    I've been to:

    Baldivis, Midland, Morley, Innaloo,
    Ellenbrook, Kardinya, Warwick, Wanneroo
    Joondalup, Armadale, Lakelands, Clarkson
    Cockburn, Bunbury, Mirrabooka, Eaton
    Belmont, Carousel, Rockingham, Booragoon
    Maddington, Mandurah, Vic Park, I'm a loon!

    ...

    Feel free to add your own state versions!

    Good work!

    Just a friendly reminder that a thread for TF-related filks exists here.

    Very clever. I’m sure it’s just as accurate for Hot Wheels collectors too.

    Aside from driving nearly 100km to various Kmarts, I've also spent 3 hours calling Kmart North rocks, Top Ryde, Parramatta, Lidcombe, Castle Hill, Hornsby, Stanhope Gardens, Burwood, Ashfield, Blacktown, Bankstown, Wetherill Park, Hurstville and Warriewood -- Stanhope Gardens had 1 Studio Series 86 Hot Rod... otherwise sweet nothing.

    Saw your Holy Grail post and sung to myself "🎶 Gok's been everywhere, man... Couldn't find a Jazz, man... 🎵" Can't get the song out of my head now, especially with the additional 86 figure hunting... ha haha ha ha haha haha ha.

    Spent another hour calling Kmarts this morning. "♫ I've called everywhere man, I've called everywhere man! ♪"

    I've even been using conference call mode on my phone to call 2 stores at a time. Check out how long I've been ringing some of those phones!
