I wrote this song while watching a DVD called Shortstocking by Timothy Sykes www.timothysykes.com
Thought it turned out pretty well. The album with this song on it should be out in mid to late march depending on the workload of the production place.
Lyrics
Shortseller
(Mike Wagner 2009)
You know just what a low priced fraud looks like
It plays out on your screen every day
You wish you could make their loss your gain
Or find someone to show you the way
(And Timmy Says)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
When you start to sense sketchy incompetence
A shortseller's what to be
It don't matter 'bout no big bad Blackman PR the PDT or the SEC (screw 'em all)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
(Yo man, my name's Tito, I make a head & shoulders)
The morning starts off with a big panic drop
The value players they go insane
Support has been broke Fibonacci's dead
As everybody circles the drain
(And Timmy Says)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
When you start to sense sketchy incompetence
A shortseller's what to be
It don't matter 'bout no big bad Blackman PR the PDT or the SEC (screw 'em all)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
They go on T.V. claimin' they made a million dollars
They forgot to mention they lost 7 million more
They try to blame the shortseller for all of their problems
But you're smarter than that so you can laugh them off the floor.
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
When you start to sense sketchy incompetence
A shortseller's what to be
It don't matter 'bout no big bad Blackman PR the PDT or the SEC (screw 'em all)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
(one more time)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
When you start to sense sketchy incompetence
A shortseller's what to be
It don't matter 'bout no big bad Blackman PR the PDT or the SEC (screw 'em all)
Sellin' short ain't easy
Sellin' short'll set you free
