about

Here's a rockin' song recorded in social isolation

lyrics

Sit down by the fire
You know it's nice and warm
I'm gonna tell you a story
About the time before

The world she was our mother
She cared for one and all
Soon enough, man thought he'd rose above her
'Twas a painful downfall
Downfall

They called it business
They called it common sense
They called it business
They called it common sense
They called it business
They called it common sense

Whoever had the most
Was surely the best

We got this notion of "mine" and "yours"
Gotta take all you can
Divide the world into rich and poor
It's one enormous scam

The people we all lost our minds
Following this greed
At first we thought that it was fine
But we were all diseased
Diseased

We called it business
We called it common sense
We called it business
We called it common sense
We called it business
We called it common sense

Whoever had the most
Was surely the best

Then there came a leader
Reflection of the worst inside ourselves
Ego, hatred, and genocide
Electing our own path to hell

He called it business
He called it common sense
He called it business
He called it common sense
He called it business
He called it common sense
He called it business
He called it common sense

Whoever had the most
Had sold out the rest
He sold out the rest
He sold out the rest

Sit down by the fire
You know it's nice and warm
