Salesman Keith

from Office Doodles by The Weary Band

about

About a man I once worked with who was a salesman called Keith.

lyrics

Salesman Keith he finds no belief
in keeping his dreams alive.
Physically ugly, exceptionally lonely,
always too drunk to drive.

Expresses belief in a greasy-haired chief
that gives-out a quota a day.
Salesman Keith doesn't like what he sees
he receeds from disease and decay.

He once made her smile
that girl he used to know,
why she was so
beautiful.

Writing reports about why we buy shorts
whilst scanning the stars in the sun.
Nobody cares what you do with their shares
just as long as you tell them they've won.

If it's all up to you why not do what I do,
i seem to dream a lot.
If i lied through my teeth like Salesman Keith
i wouldn't be sleeping at all.

He once made her smile,
that girl he used to know.
Why she was so
beautiful.

And you made her smile,
now all those years ago
when you were all so
beautiful.

Beautiful...
