Tell 'Em Steve-Dave Challenged us to write a song to Walt Flanagan's lyrics....this is...I SELL COMICS!!
Music and Melody by Courage My Love
Lyrics by Walt Flanagan
Produced by Chris Perry
Recorded at The Pocket Studios, Toronto, Canada
Lyrics:
I SELL COMICS
What manner of creature stands behind this counter
Man or machine is the big mystery
and with every transaction I cement my place in history.
My fingers dance over the register keys leaving your mouth agape
and it's not 'cause I make King Kong look like just another ape
but it's just another sale to this comics-selling alpha male.
CHORUS
I could sell comics to a blind man
a Wednesday warrior through and through
and you'll buy everything I tell you to.
I sell comics baby. Comics baby. Comics baby. Oooooooo.....Yeahhhhhhhh
GUITAR SOLO
In WW two the allies kicked nazi ass and Hitler sobbed nein, nein, nein
Just like my competition when they hang that going out of business sign.
REPEAT CHORUS
Song ends with register sounds, drawer opening/closing
Tell 'Em Steve-Dave:

2024 still headbanging to this classic \m/
After all these years, this is still my faourite CML song ♥
Sarah's Spark ✧ me 2😁😍
HANDS DOWN
their best for sure
Relistening to old TESD episodes and yup, this tune still kicks ass.
Ikr!
Walt Flanagan - The worlds most normal songwriter.
This is quite possibly the best song I have ever heard in my entire life.
You can thank Walt Flanagan for this gem
Listening to this whilst I sold comic books and worked in a comic book store was legit a dream come true
Sweet.
10 years later and I still really like this song.
Every time this is mentioned on TESD I have to come back and listen
Fucking love this song. Such a shame it's not on spotify!
Honestly!
Man, I cannot believe its been over 10 years since that contest. Holy smokes. Still a slapper.
jeez only 3 years ago I was listening to this song on repeat. Becoming came out so quickly after For Now and just arghhh! This is a really hard working band and it pays off and shows!
Tesd and Walt Flanagan got me through construction jobs I saved my money invested in collections and now own a successful comic toy and Pokémon shop in my area. I was a die hard listener but have since fallen off it’s a little daunting now but I will go back and listen to what I missed in the past 2 years
well nearly 11 years later still a good song
Walter Flanagan, Wednesday warrior and a lyrical genius.
His olfactory sense is so powerful that he actually smells the flow of where the lyrics desire to be and guides his genius on that alone...hes this generations more useful and less whiny Rudolph...
Walter Flanagan's powers come from being the only normal person in the world. I hear his dog used to be pretty fast, too.
I love the video. Just so homemade and its looks like you put some time into it. I love it and the song was great, first song i heard, subscribed.
Hahaha the elderly people at the end too, priceless.
Walt Flanagan has such a natural gift for songwriting
Omg this still goes so hard, remember it from my teen years!!
You guys should totally re-record this song its awesome
Do Heavy Metal version
Walt Flanagan did a great job writing this song. and you guys did a great job making it into some sweet music. I'm glad Ming plays this before I Sell Comics every week, very catchy tune. will be buying it off Bandcamp guys! GO TESD ARMY, & Courage my love too.
I need a “12 years later” version for posterity and nostalgia, js
i love all courage my love but the old songs like bridges and this song were my favorite and i wish they made more songs like those
i was hearing the Tell 'Em Steve-Dave podcast where they played other versions of the song and then this one, and i must say, this one def. stands, keep up the good work, love your sound
Just discovered this song and band, and it's about Walt? Awesome!

I SOLD Comics! -Walt 2023
Stop asking who's still listening. We're always listening.
so it has been 4years already... damnit
I love this song so damn much. Both female singers are incredible and I love their attitude. Yeah they leave my mouth agape. The guitar riffs in this song are also outstanding.
Its August 24, 2020.
Idky but I just had to go back in time and find this band again. I'm so glad I liked a couple of and a of them. Because I already forgot about them
@@wildcat002 i feel old when I hear old songs. Especially ones that are almost 10 years old
Amazing. Like paramore, only wayyyyy better... I love these guys!!! One of my new favorites. Why aren't they as big as everyone else? Amazing talent.
Anybody else notice how Phoenix seems to be happier in this song just singing and not having to drum in the video? Would love to hear Phoenix sing more!!
wow.. i remember going to choir with those two girls years and years ago... crazy how time flies.. amazing song ♥
that old couple at the end made me laugh so hard and my mom just looked at me like i was on crack
Still great song. !!! I still play it all the time!!!
Love that when listening on headphones that sometimes you can hear you guys laughing in the background....
4 years later and I still always laugh when Mercedes bites it at the end. You ladies kick ass, Doing KW proud.
My absolute favorite CML song to this very day. I just scrolled through my iPod about a week ago, because I've been using Spotify for the past 2 years and wanted to add all my forgotten music from my iPod, and BOOM! I stumbled across CML and IMMEDIATELY looked for this song. It's not on Spotify. 😭
Tell Em' Steve Dave!
You guys should commission Walt to help write a comic themed concept album.
My life has opened to a whole new way of seeing comics.
their best song and it isn't even on spotify :(
Can't stop replaying this.
This song is awesome.
My freshman year jam i finally found you again
Can you please put this on Spotify please?
I can't even begin to explain the happy feeling this song gives me.
I'd buy their comics tbh c;
Glad to see a Kitchener band, make it. crazy songs, and a beauty of a singer. great job CML
3:01 Mercedes...
i think you are AMAZING i love listening to your music no matter what it mood im in just listening and rocking out to your songs makes me feel so much better! wish i could see you live!
Mercedes forgot how to run :DD
This will always be one of my favorite songs because it's how I Discovered the band from the TESD podcast.
When she tripped at like 3.05 xD that old couple at the end too
One of the best byproducts of the Viewaskewniverse.
Full lyrics:
What manner of creature stands behind this counter
Man or machine is the big mystery
With every transaction comes the sweet satisfaction
As I cement my place in history
It's just another sale
(come on buy em up you just can't get enough)
To this comic selling alpha male....
I could sell comics to a blind man
(a Wednesday warrior through and through)
And you'll buy every single thing I tell you to
Cos I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you just can't get enough)
I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you can't get enough)
My fingers dance over the cash register
Don't look so surprised I'll leave your mouth agape
And it's not because I make King Kong look like just another ape
It's just another sale
(come on buy em up you can't get enough)
To this comic selling alpha male
I could sell comics to a blind man
(a Wednesday warrior through and through)
And you'll buy every single thing I tell you to
Cos I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you just can't get enough)
I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you can't get enough)
I could sell comics to a blind man
And you'll buy every single thing I tell you to
I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you just can't get enough)
I sell comics baby
(come on buy em up you can't get enough)
My favorite "I Sell Comics" theme. Love this song.
Omfg! Those girls are fiiiiiit
If I ever make it to Canada I think it'll be to see these awesome people live!!!!
This should've been recorded
I have been jamming to this since I was 12 (10 years ago) and FINALLY live the dream. Started working at a comic book store last week 🤘
Congrats! Good luck at the new job!
They're so nice they probably went back to pick up the comics they dropped at the end, 'cause it's damaging for nature.
I havent been able to find this song in 10 years!! So happy to have finally figured out the name. It's been driving me crazy being stuck in the back of my brain!
TESD!
the 3 of you togeather = awesomeness :)
i just really wish CML would tour to Utah :L it would be amazing to see them live.
Listening in 2023 😂
2024❤❤❤
crazyyyy
Still a banger 🎉
I have been trying to remember this song for years now I couldn't remember the name or who it was all I new was what the video was about comics omg so happy I finally found it. I use to play this on repeat in my early teens
Phoenix though... damn she is cute!
it's once in a lifetime that you find friends as good as these :)
god im like so in love with everything that as anything to do with this band i want to meet them so badly :(
"Tell'em Steve Dave!"
I normally don't care for bands like this, but these guys (or gals and guy) are really talented. Much respect for making me like something I shouldn't :)
Shout out to mc lovin being in your band
I love it at the end when she throws the comics in the air and the old couple stares at her like "WTF? Are you crazy woman?" xD
2022 gang
Dude, I know! On the 12th they are playing a show and they said they would play some new songs! Someone has to video tape that for me and put it up on youtube because I can't go because I live in the USA, not Canada... Even so I'm really excited. Love CML!
Please sell this song
Walter Flanagans incredible lyricist skills here! Love it!
3:05 yas
I meant 3:02 ;-;
Thank God that Ming mentioned your name in the last podcast. Really enjoy this song.
ArmyAnt4Life!
I am very surprised how I got to this band but I am very happy I found them. It is surprising to me how much I like them considering my favourite genre of music is metal.
Anyone in 2019? ❤
2022 I just listened to the TESD episode about this so had to check it out. Very talented.
I can't stop replying this song. It is so good. They are so incredible and super duper gorgeous.
Just stumbled across this again, haven't heard this since 2011 when I was in 8th grade.
Really brings back good memories.
Sorry I am a little late to the show on this one but this is my new favorite thing ever made! :D
12 years ♥️ I love this song.
greetings from Chile ✌🏻🇨🇱
Just found out about you guys today, a good 3 hours ago, and I am already in love with your music!! It is rare that I like this kind of music, being the fact that Cannibal Corpse and Bloodbath are my easy listening bands. Keep up the amazing work, from a fellow Canadian to you! Please be sure to tour Vancouver soon!!
I've been smiling while watching this video, I can only imagine the atmosphere and fun that was there in the making. The song just fit in perfectly. ROCK ON CML
Hmm, I was having a really bad day. But then I saw this and a smile was plastered on my face the rest of the day. You three are amazing.
Listening in Sept. 2024!
i love this song. this band is amazing!
Officaly new favourite song
Awesome! I loved comics before i heard this song, now i love them even more. Great Work!
Love this song and the band
I have to stop watching this and realize that I have no single chance to cross paths with Phoenix or anyone from this band ='(
I'll just keep listening to the music and let the happy feelings enter my body to turn a smile on my face everyday.
Goodbye secret love, hello happy reality.
Oh, please, teach me the beauty of your voices!! I love CML!!
love it still
as a guitar player and a comic lover im in love lol
