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
