lyrics

HARD TO MAKE A SALE
I could smell myself burnin’
Burnin’ into your eyes
You must erase your memories of me
Gotta make some bread for my kiddies

And it’s so hard to make a sale
Hard to make a sale
Hard to make a sale
Do I have an offer?
Did I sell myself?
Life on the margin
I’m goin’ disco
Hard to make a sale

There’s a black hole on my balcony
I keep driftin’ through space and time
Turnin’ my back on the hypocrisy
Tryin’ to quell the seller inside of me

And it’s so hard to make a sale
Hard to make a sale
Hard to make a sale
Do I have an offer?
Did I sell myself?
Life on the margin
I’m goin’ disco
Hard to make a sale

Thank you for being so considerate
Breaking up again by lunch
Now I’m goin’ to the bridge
And I swear that I will...
JUMP!

Seems to me, I’ve been had
With friends like this, who needs friends
Water my plants and call my Mom
Sealed with a kiss was this letter bomb
And it’s so hard to make a sale
When your love feels like retail
And it’s so hard to make a sale
And it’s so hard

Bulletproof, but I still have my scars
All these barricades have broken my fall
See how I survive as I land on my feet
Sealing the deal by the skin of my teeth!
