Steampianist - The Umbrella Salesman

A busy young salesman

goes from door to door,

selling magic umbrellas!

See such wondrous sights!

But no one believed him,

not a single word he said

He knocked on all the doors,

but no one answered him

This left the man depressed

for no one bought an umbrella from him

Then, one day, it rained

So, the man used his umbrella,

but, oh, it had some holes

and rain water poured over him

This left the man in the cold

He's all alone in the world

and people doubt his umbrellas

They doubt it's magic!

No one wants his umbrellas

There's no such thing as...

Magic!

So, the man found his way to the top...

Of a forty foot building...

As he gazed upon the city,

the people look to him...

He's determined to show them all

He will prove his umbrellas are magic

With a firm resolve

and a strong, clear voice

He shouted out his...

Sales pitch:

Float up to the sky above you!

It's a real birds eye view!

See comets and shooting stars!

Come and lay on the silver clouds!

Come with me!

Let us bask in the great sun!

Radiant light that warms our souls!

Take my hands, we shall reach the heavens!

Let us walk the

ethereal fields!

Everything stood still

The city was silent

Did the umbrella work?

Everyone was lost for words,

but the salesman did in fact...

Touch the ground and felt the sky

Then, the people took each an umbrella

and left the money on the

ground
