Kevin Ayers - Ballad of a Salesman Who Sold Himself lyrics

Your rating:

                     

 There was moonlight and laughter

That danced on the sands

And bloodstained pianos

Are played without hands



Such a promising music

Sweet whispers and dreams

From a travelling window

The salesman who screamed.



Moonlightsaturday night

It's now or never

Oh play stormy weather

For mefor me.



I lived in the flower shop

Called "love is so sweet!"

And I get all my kicks

From the customers' feet.



WellI'm just a stranger

None stranger than i.

My head in the quicksand

My feet in the sky.



I was carefully crazy

When playing the game.

'cause business is business

And I'm not to blame.



Climb on my back

It's a wet afternoon ;

A bottle of booze

A bit of a tune to sing;

Goodbyeeverything;

Goodbyeeverything....
