Business as Usual - Orleans

You don’t like the picture

You can’t believe in what you see

But your future seems as distant

As something on TV

So you shake your head

And talk about it to your friends

But it’s business as usual

Watching as the world ends

Can you see the sadness

In somebody else’s eyes

Can you hear above the madness

When a starving baby cries

Or will you sit around

And talk about it with you friends

And it’s business as usual

Watching as the world ends

You could get into the picture

You could try to turn the tide

It might seem impossible

But you won’t know until you’ve tried

Well you sit around

And talk about it with your friends

And it’s business as usual

Is this the way the world ends?

Business as usual
