"Business As Usual"
Look at the weather, look at the newsLook at all the people in denialWe're running time, leaving graceStill we worship at the marketplaceWhile common sense is goin' out of styleI thought that I would be above it all by nowIn some country garden in the shade
But it's business as usualDay after dayBusiness as usualJust grinding awayYou try to be righteousYou try to do goodBut business as usualTurns your heart into wood
Monuments to arrogance reach for the skyOur better nature's buried in the rubbleWe got the prettiest White House that money can buySitting up there in that beltway bubbleThe main jefe talks about our freedomBut this is what he really means...
Business as usualHow dirty we playBusiness as usualDon't you get in the wayYeah, make you feel helplessMake you feel like a clownBusiness as usualIs breakin' me down
Boy, you can't go surfing in Century CityYeah, them sharks out there are lurking beneath the curbYeah, they rob you blind, chew you up, and it ain't prettyAnd it's a soul suckin', soul suckin', soul suckin', soul suckin'Soul suckin', soul suckin' world
Business as usualDay after dayBusiness as usualFeel like walking awayA barrell of monkeysOr band of renownBusiness as usualIs breakin' me downBreakin' me down
