Lyrics

"It’s Only Business"
(Lyrics and Music - M. Novak)

It’s only business
It’s only business nothing personal you see
We had to let you go but it’s best for our company
The rich executives just need more money you see
But it’s only business nothing personal you see

Our profits are up and your performance is down
So we’re sending your job off to China town
Don’t take it so hard that’s just what we do
We’re makin’ lots of money we sure as hell don’t need you

CHORUS:
It’s only business so anything goes
It’s only business we’ve got to out do our foes
It’s only business you’re just a number to me
It’s only business it’s nothing personal you see


We’re sorry you lost your car or even your home
Maybe you can make some money selling your chromosomes
We’d like to help you but you know our hands are tied
Maybe you can start a new career in potatoes french fried

CHORUS:

The stock market’s soaring now well the profits are good
Starting next week we’re going to bulldoze your neighborhood
It may be our fault that your life didn’t go as planned
But our execs make lots more money
When the work’s done in a foreign land

It’s only business
It's only business
