|
They get up every morning |
|
From the alarm clock's warning |
|
Take the eight-fifteen into the city |
|
There's a whistle up above |
|
And people pushing, people shoving |
|
And the girls who try to look pretty |
|
And if your train's on time |
|
You can get to work by nine |
|
And start your slaving job to get your pay |
|
If you ever get annoyed |
|
Look at me, I'm self-employed |
|
I love to work at nothing all day |
|
And I've been takin' care of business, every day |
|
Takin' care of business, every way |
|
I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine |
|
Takin' care of business and working overtime |
|
Work out |
|
If it were easy as fishin' |
|
You could be a musician |
|
If you could make sounds loud or mellow |
|
Get a secondhand guitar |
|
Chances are, you'll go far |
|
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows |
|
People see you having fun |
|
Just a-lying in the sun |
|
Tell them that you like it this way |
|
It's the work that we avoid |
|
And we're all self-employed |
|
We love to work at nothing all day |
|
And we've been takin' care of business, every day |
|
Takin' care of business, every way |
|
We've been takin' care of business, it's all mine |
|
Takin' care of business and working overtime |
|
Whoo |
|
All right, ow! |
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah! |
|
Take good care of my business |
|
When I'm away, every day |
|
Whoo! |
|
They get up every morning |
