"The Cost Of Doing Business" lyrics

"The Cost Of Doing Business"

We're fucked!

You talk about the future like I ever gave a fuck
But come 2050 I'll be dead with any luck (dead with any luck)
You keep going on about responsibility (what's in it for me)
But please enlighten me
What's in it for me

Slowly see the tragedy
Us clueless monkeys lost at sea

I know we'll pay it in the end
I know we'll lose it all and nothing less, I confess
It's just the cost of doing (business)

Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!
Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!
Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!

You can preach the apocalypse, you're foaming at the mouth
But I for one will gladly take this drunken hell-ride south
You keep going on as if don't understand (just don't give a damn)
But I just don't give a damn

Slowly see the tragedy
Us clueless monkeys lost at sea

(God have you forsaken me?)
And as dead as one can be

I know we'll pay it in the end
I know we'll lose it all and nothing less, I confess
It's just the cost of doing business

I won't forget how my world burned and bled
Or the way that you chose to abandon us there
And I won't forget how you chose to let go
The way you used and threw away our only home

And as dead as one can be

I know we'll pay it in the end
I know we'll lose it all and nothing less, I confess
It's just the cost of doing

I know we'll pay it in the end
I know we'll lose it all and nothing less, I confess
It's just the cost of doing

Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!
Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!
Hey, hey, the cost of doing business!
