Salesman
Do you remember when
You were like every other punk band in your scene?
Play to 40 people and friends
Playing to the punkers from other bands
You were fast and loud hungry back then
Came up singing stick it to the man
Political agendas and what you've been through
And everything that meant a thing to you
Now you got some interest from the record man
In it for a life and not a one night stand
Worked out well for both of you
Started his dream and made yours true
A new label everything's turned around
Fans were less but the bigger crowds
Record by record
Your reasons have all slipped away
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you dreamed?
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you dreamed?
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you believed?
What you need
To succeed
What you believed
You were like every other punk band in your scene?
Play to 40 people and friends
Playing to the punkers from other bands
You were fast and loud hungry back then
Came up singing stick it to the man
Political agendas and what you've been through
And everything that meant a thing to you
Now you got some interest from the record man
In it for a life and not a one night stand
Worked out well for both of you
Started his dream and made yours true
A new label everything's turned around
Fans were less but the bigger crowds
Record by record
Your reasons have all slipped away
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you dreamed?
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you dreamed?
Now you're just another salesman
Making money from pretend fans
Using the excuse
You just wanna get your message through
You are music's equivalent of a tv commercial an advertisement
Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you believed?
What you need
To succeed
What you believed
