Bought a heavy-duty 8″ bench vise at a yard sale Saturday for $1.00! That’s one dollar US, folks! Just the thing for my bench I just built.
This kind of thing never happens to me.
(Extra points if you can identify the play from which the song “I Gotta Crow” comes…)

You mean, like . . .
I gotta crow / I'm just the cleverest fellow t'was ever my fortune to know / I taught a trick to my shadow to stick to the tip of my toe / I gotta crow / I gotta brag / I think it's sweet I have fingers and feet I can wiggle and wag / I can climb trees and play tag with the breeze in the meadows below / I gotta crow / If I were a very ordinary everyday thing I'd never be heard Cock-a-doodling round like a bird / So naturally When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me / How can I hide it when deep down inside it just tickles me so I gotta crow / I'm really a rare thing Such a fair thing / I can't keeps still I'm bursting with pride / And I just couldn't keep it inside If I tried / So naturally When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me / How can I hide it when deep down inside it just tickles me so That I gotta let go And croooooow!

So your $1 vise was over priced by todays standards I'd say......
Mind you
You can undo the vise and throw it in the bin....I'm stuck with my dollars worth.............

Bert, Peter Pan. One out of three ain't bad. Right? Mary Martin (From South Pacific )
Stein. What's the prize?
Correct for extra points! On to the lightning round.
Steinmetz, the only lyrics I remember are "I gotta crow - er-er-er-er!..." So if the ones you quoted follow it's the same song, otherwise...
"Peter Pan" also yielded the theme song of my life (apparently) "I Won't Grow Up"...
Chad, "I don't wanna grow up, I don't wanna grow up la la la l....
I,ve been saying that for 72 years but I still out grow my clothes. Ed from Conn.. aka Stein.
