Cockamamie Business Lyrics - 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 McDonald's 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

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
