Busy, busy businessman
I don’t wanna be no businessman
Selling, buying, making plans
Going from Malaysia to Japan

Busy, busy businessman
Trains and planes and traffic jams
Busy, busy, busy businessman

My teacher taught me the golden rule
Go do your homework, don’t be a fool
All words and numbers just fell out of head
I sold my books and bought
a walkman instead

I don’t need no shiny shoes and tie
I was born to be a happy guy

[Chorus]

I buy two apples but I’m paying for three
This businessman is playing tricks on me
One, two, three, sixty nine
I don’t really care
I give and take and take and give and I share

I’d rather be an eskimo in space
Than just a brick, that’s easy to replace

[Chorus]
