The Price Of Doing Business Lyrics & Chords By Sean Nelson

We hadn't worked in a year
We prayed the checks would all clear
I got another eviction notice
You got a brilliant career

Now have you had enough or
Should I continue?
I'm sure there's lots more to say
Like how when you were young you were
Sweet and charming
And now you're like a landmine
That needs disarming
Oh, congratulations on your great success
It's comforting to see you're still a mess
(Remind me not to say that out loud)

You got the thousand-yard stare
The world's your building and we're all tenants
It's like you're not even there
Suffering fools like a saint
Who's doing some kind of public penance
I know.
Sometimes you gotta get your shirtsleeves dirty
Sometimes you gotta wallow in the slime...
That's just the price of doing business
The price of doing business

I read your letter again
I still can't think of a proper comeback
I still bump into you now and then
I always seem to get knocked on my ass by the impact
I don't expect you to confess to perfect murders
You're just not who you used to be, I guess
That that's the price of doing business
The price of doing business
