COCAMAMIE BUSINESS By George Harrison Bust my back on the Levy - broke my strings on the BBC Found my chops on Eel Pie Island - paid my dues at the Marquee Slagged off by the N.M.E. - lost my stash and my virginity In this Cockamamie Business Got my face on Ed Sullivan - broke my heart on the Soul Train Introduced to Bad Company - lost cells down at Brain Drain And before I could mend - lost the missus, missed the girlfriend In this Cockamamie Business Now we like to air condition - though the air has no ozone ring Still they're chopping down the forest for McDonalds and the Burger King Eating cows with such persistance - doesn't offer much resistance To this Cockamamie Business There are too many things - stressing out the nervous system Girls you used to know - fellas that may have kissed'em Some got rabies - Some got fleas - some got incurable diseases >From this Cockamamie Business Everybody's after as many points as they can get As long as it's not them that has to pay No one really minds the Debt 5-Star actors, tax inspectors, film producers and directors With their Cockamamie Business Well you do what you can - can't do much more than that (No you can't do what he just said) Some days you're pretty sharp - on other days you feel half dead (While you make your daily bread) Didn't want to be a star - wanted just to play guitar In this Cockamamie Business Any comments, corrections or suggestions, mail me! ______________________________________________________
