Folks of Innsmouth:
Hammond's Drugstore Clerk
Franklyn Searight
The bus to Innsmouth? Gets to Market
Square
At ten o'clock. It soon should be outside.
It brings the few who come to town to shop,
And picks up those with sixty cents to ride.
But Innsmouth isn't really quite the place
For chaps like you to visit for a lark.
It might not hurt to spend an hour there,
But, friend, I wouldn't linger after dark!
I see the folks who loiter near the curb
Are drifting now a short ways down the street,
Which means the bus is near; its passengers
Are folks the people here care not to meet!
