zack tomasko - birth of a salesman lyrics

[folks talking]

[verse 1]

just a short term girl
tryna keep it long distance
here for your pleasure but
i mean business

i’m gonna be a star
i’ll be gone by the
time you see me

just a big dumb fella
in the big dumb city
tryna make a dream come true

pumping out a draft
of his own obituary
local man tried his best
for you

he takes a moment
and a look into the mirror

knuckles to his eyes
so he can think a little clearer
never really knows just
how close he is to a breakthrough

[chorus 1]

if only, if only
i wasn’t so d+mn lonely
maybe i could meet somebody nеw

i’ve been so looking forward to
keeping my eyes closеd
i forgot the words i used to use

now i’m speaking in tongues in
the middle of a memory with you

[verse 2]

well, he understood that
she was indefferent
he was looking for a thing like
her for instance

that girl was a billboard
and he had a lot to sell
if he could get to her early
he could be persuasive
he had to make his way
into the equation

she was a theory
and he had something to prove

he spits a slogan and
she whispers to her lonesome
glasses she don’t wear come out
to see how long she owes him

never gonna be
quite as free as you were
on the way here

[chorus 2]

and if only if only
all that dream you sold me
was worth more than an evening
and a smile

i was so speechless
with everyone’s ears on
a sad eyed little kid
so far from home
in a room full of folks
that are banking on you feeling alone

[bridge]

she’s gotta be vain
but not too vain

she’s gotta be skinny
but not too skinny

she’s gotta be sane
but not too sane

she’s gotta be pretty
yes!

she’s out there
somewhere
just like you

[outro]

so beware the salesman
particularly the salesman in you
