I'm in the music business
Future looking downfall
I'm in the music business
Future looking downfall

Lying in the dirt
Spoke of going to law school

Music business, bound to be my downfall

I'm in the music business
Hair down to my shoulders
I'm in the music business
I can't get a job as a busboy
With hair down to my shoulders
Ah, I need a sandwhich
Ah

Music business, bound to be my downfall

Running out of money
Crazy going hungry
Got get a part in a skin flic
Running out of money
Gotta put a mask on
I grab a cat o' nine tails
I whip a local honey
I'm in the music business
It's so funny
Music business, woo!

Said I gotta take my clothes off
Trying to play some bebop
Oh gotta take a belt to a sonnet
And then he roll the camera
Oh yeah, forty dollars for a crotch shot
They gave me forty dollars
Oh yeah forty dollars
Only forty dollars
Oh you know I knew
Yeah yeah yeah, aha
Aw yeah music business
Forty dollars
