Sell It And They Will Come

Bruce Springsteen "Sell It and They Will Come" (Live 1996/7) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erz6QplgCOA [Verse 1] I fell asleep on the couch last night woke up with the TV on There was a woman in tight cotton exercise shorts And a big plastic machine she was climbing on She said "The Aba-cycle guarantees ten inches off your waist And 50 pounds in just 3 minutes a day." I went to bed knowing the revolution had been postponed And everything was okay   [Chorus] You can try it you can buy it it’ll help you in bed But don’t be fooled folks there’s only one I forget the guy’s name but I know somebody said Sell it and they will come boys sell it and they will come [Verse 2] I switched the channels and there was Evel Knievel I thought that he was dead I found myself sitting there quietly hanging on every word he said "Now folks the stimulator removes all pain from your life. And the best day of your life will be when you try this little device out." The camera moved in as he said "Now let me tell you ladies and gentlemen Pain is something old Evel knows a little about" [Chorus] You can buy it you can try it go right ahead But don’t be fooled folks there’s only one. I forget the guy’s name but i know somebody said Sell it and they will come boys sell it and they will come [Verse 3] And a fellow comes on shouting "Free haircuts for life!" Somehow you cut your hair with a vacuum cleaner And then I switched the channels and there was Dionne Warwick Communing with her psychic friends I watched for hours taking warmth comfort and pleasure In the things that I despise Touched by how much they needed me And that happy desperation in their eyes [Chorus] You can buy it you can try it it’ll help you in bed. But don’t be fooled folks there’s only one. I forget the guy’s name but i know somebody said Sell it and they will come boys sell it and they will come [Verse 4] So to Dionne Cher and all my late-night friends I drink to your health And Tony Little America’s personal trainer please kill yourself Now I’ve sold a few things myself in my time and by the way folks There’s some t-shirts on your way outside Well last night I dreamed of lipstick and tight little cotton shorts "Harder faster" she whispered in my ear. "One two three four five" Ride sally ride girl ride sally ride. [Chorus] You can buy it you can try it it’ll help you in bed. But don’t be fooled folks there’s only one I forget the guy’s name but i know somebody said Sell it and they will come boys sell it and they will come
