cut and a sincere tie,
And for my first job I did apply
A job in an advertising agency,
Sharpening the pencils of a big VP

Would have been to become Picasso or greater

Audience that they

Because these are your yuppy days
Are you just passing through

In the study of the Western mind and how
It relates to the manipulation
Of certain symbols
Because they are in charge
Of marketing and advertising
