lyrics

you have a firm handshake
cologne's got a nice smell
you dress quite dapper
you really clean up well
you wear designer glasses
your shirt a tasteful pastel
got a big ole smile with bright white teeth
and a flagpin on your lapel

[CHORUS]
you're selling yourself
you're really trying
you're selling yourself
and I'm not lying
you're selling yourself
you're really high-flying
you're selling yourself
but I'm not buying

you're a real smooth talker
almost got me under your spell
lots of tidbits and anecdotes
and some interesting intel.
you seem to know all the buzzwords
an impressive show and tell
but when I scratch beneath the surface
off go alarm bells.

[repeat chorus]

i ask some simple questions
you evade and look sly
you've run out of prepared answers
won't look me in the eye.
you start to make stuff up
begin to flat out lie
you fidget 'n squirm, like a worm
looks like you're gonna cry

[repeat chorus]
