El Dubya - Salesman of the Year Lyrics




Read the directions, but you improvised a lot
Now you don't look quite like the picture on the box
But you still test well with the ladies of a target vintage
Focus groups don't disapprove of your brand new image
You got more going than you know
You've got a good backstory
Just try to relax
Smile at the camera
And when it smiles back
Stop acting

Watching the sky for the bluebirds to reappear
Like when you were salesman of the year
But all you get are lookie-loo's and tire-kickers
Who stick to you like residue from bumper stickers
Everybody wants to know
You got a good backstory?
Better learn to relax
Smile at the camera
And when it smiles back
Stop acting

Caught me clock-watching
And sneaking coffee in the back
Aw, we're just sleep-talking
And managing our heart attacks

There is no manual for navigating this
There is no workaround or temporary fix
The endless question that the day is posing
How can you stay open when you're always closing?
When that is out of your control
Just get a good backstory
Stick to the facts
Smile at the camera
And when it smiles back
Stop acting
Stop acting
Stop acting
