Everyone's Sellin' Something - The Argument

A horizon of billboards, a landscape of signs,

Complete with bright colors and crafty sales pitch lines.

On the side of each building on every inch of this town,

Logos and dollar signs are all that count.

And your radio is telling you lies,

Tabloids and TV shows play tricks on your eyes.

Every song is a jingle, every story’s an ad,

Every handshake’s in question so is each pat on the back.

'Cause Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

As long as someone out there is buyin' in.

Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

You’re a key demographic in someone’s campaign,

Marked with an asterisk they’ve circled your name.

You thought it was bad, well, its worse than you think.

Was it wink and then point or was it point and then wink.

When Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

As long as someone out there is buyin' in.

Everyone’s Sellin', They’re Sellin' Something.

Bridge:

They all compete for your dime,

30 seconds at a time.

Put a sign in the window,

That says «Everything Must Go»
