The Salesman Lyrics & Tabs by I See Hawks In L.A.
The Salesman
guitar chords lyrics
Oh the salesman is a bright shiny spirit
or maybe you’ve just had a bad day
or maybe your baby’s gone and left you
and that’s why you’re driving away
In a 1971 Chevy Nova with a 501 and a 12-to-1 etc, etc
Oh the salesman is a bright shiny spirit
his face filled with vigor and vim
just close the deal with a handshake
he’ll transfer that love
that gift from a above
to the object that winds up on your table
And what are you in for now?
Oh, what are you in for now?
And what are you in for now?
Oh, what are you in for now?
Oh, what are you in for now?
And what are you in for now?
Oh, what are you in for now?
Well the salesman takes a break and drinks his coffee
looks up into the night sky
and just like that other fallen angel
he asks his father why
did you lead me through the dark
to the land of sunny parks
to the days before your expectations
broke me heart, broke my heart, broke my heart
Oh, the TV is a red ruby Satan
broadcast to your soul from below
and the salesman has a bright shiny vision
that tattooed bar code
from which all riches flow
from Wall Street to Frankfurt to Tokyo
