Mayflower
Consumerism Chronicles: Unveiling Desires in Diane Coffee's 'Mayflower'
Lyrics
Well, how can I help you? I
Addressing the listener's need for assistance
Can give you what you want
Offering what the listener desires
With a great selection that
Highlighting a wide array of options
Everybody's trying to top
Competition among others attempting to excel
Try it on for size
Encouragement to consider or experience it
I could give you five to think it through
Suggesting time for contemplation
But if you don't buy now
Pressuring to make a purchase
Your friends will all be cooler than you
Implying social status if one doesn't buy
Well, you buy what we say
Directive to follow the seller's instructions
When we want you to pay, you pay up
Emphasizing payment when prompted
Well, you buy what we say
Reiteration of buying under influence
When we want you to pay, you pay up, yeah
Reinforcing the idea of prompt payment
I see you looking, I can get what you need
Assurance of fulfilling the listener's needs
It's a brand-new model with a
Promoting a new and reliable product
Hell of a guarantee
Guaranteeing the product's quality
You better walk away with something
Encouraging a purchase
I won't let you take away my sale
Resisting losing a potential sale
Won't you try this one, try that one
Offering various options for consideration
Try this one, why not here, today?
Encouraging immediate action
Well, you buy what we say
Reiteration of buying under influence
When we want you to pay, you pay up
Emphasizing payment when prompted
Well, you buy what we say
Reiteration of buying under influence
When we want you to pay, you pay up, yeah
Reinforcing the idea of prompt payment
Oh, you know you want it
Acknowledging desire for a product
Everybody's got, everybody's got it
Stating ubiquity of the desired item
Everybody's got it oh, you know you want it
Reiteration of desire for a widely possessed item
Everybody's got
Reiteration of ubiquity of the desired item
