Vendor of the Week

He gives his pitch and he don’t know
She’s got another on the phone
He’ll don the suit
Her fleeting gaze … is all she gives to him

And she’s got listings on the pad
Of all the COs she wished he was
And she means everything to him

The salesman, he don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too blind, in a bind
I wish that I could make him see
He’s just the vendor of the week

It’s Monday night, the release goes out
He’s a thousand miles away
It’s dressed to kill
And the logger’s on

He’s connected to the sound
And he’s got awards on the wall
From all the pubs he’s wooed before
But she knows all his favourite quotes

The salesman, he don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too blind, in a bind
I wish that I could make him see
He’s just the vendor of the week

Yeah

The salesman, he don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too blind, he’s too blind
He’s too blind, he’s too blind
The salesmen, he don’t know
Anything about her
He’s too blind, in a bind
I wish that I could make him see
He’s just the vendor of the week
Yeah, he’s the vendor of the week

And she makes him weak
