Business Goes On As Usual
Fran Minkoff, Fred Hellerman
[Verse 1]
Business goes on as usual
The corn and the profits are high
And the TVs boom in every living room
They tell us which deodorant to buy
[Verse 2]
Business goes on as usual
Except that my brother is dead
He was twenty-five and very much alive
But the dreams have all been blasted from his head
[Bridge]
In a far-off land with a gun in his hand
He died in a war he did not understand
[Verse 3]
And business goes on as usual
There's plenty to choose from the rack
And the rumor goes, the latest thing in clothes
Will be black
[Outro]
Business goes on as usual
Business goes on as usual
Business goes on as usual
Business goes on as usual
