You get up every morning
From your 'larm clock's warning
Take the 8.15 into the city
There's a whistle up above
And people pushin', people shovin'
And the girls who try to look pretty
Well, if your train's on time
You can get to work by 9
And start your slaving job and get your pay
And if you ever get annoyed
Look at me, I'm self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day
And I'll be

TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS, EVERY DAY
TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS, EVERY WAY
I'VE BEEN TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS, IT'S ALL MINE
TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS AND WORKING OVERTIME
WORK OUT

If it were easy as fishin'
You could be a musician
If you could make sounds loud or mellow
Well, get a second-hand guitar
Chances are you'll go far
If you get in with the right bunch of fellows
Well, people see you having fun
Just a lying in the sun
Tell them that you like it this way
Well, it's the work that we avoid
And we're all self-employed
We love to work at nothing all day
And we be

Hey
Come on
Uh

Take good care of my business
When I'm away every day

Takin' care of business...
