The Salesman
Door to door, floor to floor,
walking, knocking, talking.
They have the most, least, best,
fastest, strongest, ever to pass the test.
Any or all to be had for a price- - -!
They are nice but never stop talking.
They can’t make a sale by walking.
Knuckles are sore from knocking.
They constantly practice the hawking.
Sales are a ratio of presentation,
so they give it without hesitation.
The goal is to sell total population.
Talk fast, close hard, get paid, don’t rile,
leave a card, and smile, smile, smile.
