The Advertising Man

The Advertising Man

It was nine o'clock on a Monday morning,
'Okay guys, L'oreal want some stuff - boring,
I want something by lunchtime - make it a hit,
I pay you enough don't I, because you're worth it.'

'My GOD - that's it - I don't need you guys anymore,'
there was muttering as we walked out of the door;
It could have been sausages, cars or condoms,
with busty birds giving suitable cheesy, come-ons.

There had been 'put a tiger in your bloody tank,'
'the car in front is a Toyota' and Felix having a wank,
and ' hands that do dishes will be soft as your face,
with brand new Fairy liquid,' a crappy interface.

We need some woman with big lips for L'oreal advert,
oh yes, that beautiful lady who was sadly burnt.

The world of advertising is abusive, attractive and very misleading, a pretty face sells well from a perfume to a Scotch-Brite.

A greeting, I liked the composition.
