NOBODY’S BUSINESS

I like this picture, but they talk too much
Distressed domestics failing in the clutch
The grain is falling, it's swirling all around
His heels are burning when they touch the ground
Nobody’s business, nobody’s business
Nobody’s business but you

I bet you're leaning on a magazine
Up on an elbow on the mezzanine
Piles of paper up around your knees
Cigarettes burning constantly
Nobody’s business, nobody’s business
Nobody’s business but you

Saint Johns County in the pouring rain
Tossed and turned out, all around again
Sitting on your back door sifting through the leaves
The water is rising up under the eaves
It’s nobody’s business, it’s nobody’s business
Nobody’s business
It’s nobody’s business but you
