Little Feat - Business As Usual LYRICS

Craig Fuller, Paul Barrere, Bill Payne

Come home last night wishin I could unwind
Turned on the news ya know it blew my mind
Current affairs got me in a spin
People everywhere doin' each other in
Fussin' and fightin' from dusk till dawn
Lyin', stealin, wheelin', dealin', it just keeps rollin' on
Nothin but bad news and it's wearin' kind of thin
With every news situation sems to be a no win

It's just business as usual
It's just business as usual

Send in the funds, keep the faith alive
Without your checks how can we survive
We got cars in the yard, bills to pay
Crosses to bear, we got souls to save
Each and every day, people sittin' round, a Sunday go to meetin' town
T.V. prophets bringing on a judgement day
The rectory's wrecked, the preacher's funds are goin' slowin' down
Elders eyes see their good life slippin' away

It's just business as usual
It's just business as usual

If it rings of truth throw it out the window
If you need any proof, it's any way the wind blows
If you're askin' me, I'll tell you that I don't know
And so it goes, so it goes
And it'all goin' down, on the outskirts of town
I saw it on the radio, in the heart of the village
It's rape, plunder, and pillage
I got it off the press, so it must be so
It must be so

It's just business as usual
It's just business as usual
It's just business as usual
It's just business as usual
