Making a Deal

This crosses "Head Over Heels" by Tears For Fears with a used furniture salesman.

You walked into my furniture store
To get out of the weather
Faux Phoenician vases and stylin dining spaces
Could not catch your attention
You scrunch your eyebrows and you grimace your mouth
I see you have reservations
I'd like to sell you something, maybe you need a couch
You say the price is high
Oh it's just, just way too high
But it's a special and I'm making a deal
I must be crazy to be making a deal
I want this sale and now I'm making a deal
So I'll knock the price
And drop the price
Oh, it's, it's a special today
<Special today>
<Special today>
I'm on commission, but I'll throw it away
You know I have no ambition
Buy it now and I can, I can, toss in this lamp
<Special today>
It's. It's. It's.  A good proposition
The others in the break room think that I can not sell
<Subliminal ad>
It really is a downer
<You want this sofa>
It's hard to meet the plan when the quota's out of hand
<Cooshy cooshy comfy pillows>
Oh don't leave so
Cuz it's a special and I'm making a deal
I must be crazy to be making a deal
I want this sale and now I'm making a deal
So I'll knock the price
And drop the price
Oh, it's, it's a special today
This is a lovely sofa
Oh, what a find, and it reclines
This is my only sofa
<So fa so fa fa, so fa so fa fa>…
When a dime shines
One bargain tag, one bargain man
This is a good buy
