Business Goes On As Usual
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Business goes on as usual
The corn and the profits are high
And TV's boom in every living room
They tell us what deodorants to buy
Business goes on as usual
Except that my brother's dead
He was 25 and very much alive
But the dreams have all been blasted from his head
In in a far off land with a gun in his hand
He died in a war he did not understand
While business goes on as usual
There's plenty to choose from the rack
But rumor goes that the latest thing in clothes
The latest things in clothes will be black
But business goes on as usual, as usual, as usual
