Lostboycrow – I'm A Sailor Not A Salesman lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sleeping in a van, out of gas
Playing in a band, on Mississipi Avenue
Pickin' a guitar, strapped for cash
Mappin' out the stars, on every single latitude

[Pre-Chorus]
And it was all about
Lipstick, pickups and drumstick
Flips on the white stripe kit
Cause the kids can't quit, no
You know I just can't quit, no

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm a sailor, keep on sailing
Out of my mind, out on the tide
I've got nowhere to be
I'm a sailor, not a salesman
Out on the line, nothing to hide
Cause I'm no good at pretending

[Verse 2]
Hanging on a watermelon sunset
Swing through open doors in my dreams
Eight years old and no one ever told me
What I couldn't be
Shoot hoops, dance moves, I could believe anything

[Pre-Chorus]
And it was all about
Lipstick, pickups and drumstick
Flips on the white stripe kit
Cause the kids can't quit, no
You know I just can't quit, no

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm a sailor, keep on sailing
Out of my mind, out on the tide
I've got nowhere to be
I'm a sailor, not a salesman
Out on the line, nothing to hide
Cause I'm no good at pretending

[Bridge]
I hear you speak, it's synthetic, like a dead end
It's just nothing
It's just nothing, it's synthetic
It's just nothing, ooh

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm a sailor, keep on sailing
Out of my mind, out on the tide
I've got nowhere to be
I'm a sailor, not a salesman
Out on the line, nothing to hide
Cause I'm no good at pretending

[Outro]
I guess Jackson was right
Imma sail out of sight
