Show Business

You learn to sing
You learn to play
Why don't the businessmen
Ever learn to pay.

That's show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

You play in halls
Play in bars
You're climbin' walls
Chasin' stars.

That's show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

You pay the man
You pay your dues
When it's all gone, ooh
You sing the blues.

Show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

You wanna roll
You wanna rock
You find it hard
If your guitar's in hock.

That's show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

You're smoking butts
They smoke cigars
You're drown in debt
They drown in bars.

That's show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

You pull a chick
Take her home
No use, man
You're worn out to the bone.

That's show business (Show business)
Show business (Show business)
Show business
That's the way it goes.

That's show business, show business
That's show business, show business, show business
That's the way it goes
Know what I mean.
