Salesman Lyrics by Switchfoot etc.

Etc.

1995

What are you selling and what does it cost?
What does it do for the loser who lost?
Do you believe in it?
Why do you smile
Have you been trying to sell it to me all the while?
When you go into your room late at night
And you turn to the window
The stars are bright lights
Lights
Are you looking for something to sell?
Looking for someone to sell it to?
Are you looking for something to sell
Mr. Salesman
When you were younger did you know the truth?
Did you know all along what you wanted to do
All of the reason for all that we buy
Or is society boring you and I?
When you go into your room late at night
And you turn to the window
The stars are bright lights, lights
Are you looking for something to sell?
Looking for someone to sell it to?
Are you looking for something to sell
Mr. Salesman
