Takin' Care of Business |
You get up every morning |
From your alarm clock’s warning |
Take the 8:15 into the city |
There’s a whistle up above |
And people pushin', people shovin' |
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’ll be… |
Taking care of business, every day |
Taking care of business, every way |
I’ve been taking care of business, it’s all mine |
Taking care of business. |
and working overtime |
Work out |
--- Instrumental --- |
If it were easy as fishin' |
You could be a musician |
If you could make sounds loud or mellow |
Get a second-hand 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 I’ll be… |
Taking care of business, every day |
Taking care of business, every way |
I’ve been taking care of business, it’s all mine |
Taking care of business and working overtime |
--- Instrumental --- |
1, 2, 3, 4, And we be… |
Taking care of business every day |
Taking care of business every way |
I’ve been taking care of business, it’s all mine |
Taking care of business and working overtime |
--- Instrumentall to fade --- |
