THE SALES GAME

The alarm clocks ringing, and with it it’s bringing

A fine, fine day “and that’s okay” 

But the job I do, may not carry me through, 

It comes with no guaranteed pay, that’s the way 

 

Chorus

IN THE SALES GAME

THE UPS AND DOWNS ARE WHAT DO YOU PLAY 

LOOKIN’ AT THE UPSIDE,

SMOOTHIN’ OUT A ROCKY RIDE 

 

I’ve got a one legged up,

That’s a man without his wife 

He ain’t gonna buy you can bet your life 

Lookie Loos, and all the be-backs

Wasting your time to the max, you’re off track

 

Chorus

 

The lows are low, but the highs are higher 

There’s freedom to grow, if you desire 

Write your own paycheque, plan your time,

Bookin’ in some fun as you climb 

 

You hear a lot of no’s,

Still you’re on the go, 

Setting up another spiel,

And the odds are real,

That they are going to say, 

“We’d like to think about it”,

Work around it, write a deal 

 

In the sales game, nothin’ here remains the same 

another cold call, shot down ‘n’ feelin’ small 

 

“Enthusiasm m’ boy, enthusiasm!” 

 

Chorus

 

IN THE SALES GAME

THE UPS AND DOWNS ARE WHAT DO YOU PLAY 

LOOKIN’ AT THE UPSIDE,

HANG ON, ENJOY THE RIDE
