Is your manager managing to manage for the best
Or is he making out fine for himself?
Does your record label bring you in with trumpets and horns
Just to pack you back away on the shelf?
Is your lawyer lyin' to you? Do you really wanna know?
Is your agent waiting home for his pay, pay, pay?

Welcome one and all now to show show business
Wouldn't have it any other way, no
Welcome one and all now to show show business
Wouldn't have it any other way, no

You got some people lining up for seven days before you come
But then your house is full of empty chairs
Are you finding self-importance in the things that you've done
You're findin' out that no one really cares
Do the people buy your records? Do they play them on the air?
But the warehouse must be where they stay

Welcome one and all now to show show business
Wouldn't have it any other way, no
Welcome one and all now to show show business
Wouldn't have it any other way, no

Well have you ever had an aardvark sandwich?
Have you ever had a seagull stew?
I had a pet pitiful penguin and I made him watch the six o'clock news
And shine my shoes
I got the, "Help preserve 'em, don't deserve 'em
Try and serve 'em, love 'em all," blues
Well, have you ever seen a madras monkey
Have you ever seen an orlon eel
I had a pet pitiful parrot and I taught him how to pick and choose
Drink my booze
I got the, "Help preserve 'em, don't deserve 'em
Try and serve 'em, love 'em all," blues

Just keepin' track of where things are all goin'
Baby, just keepin' track
Just keepin' track of where things are all goin'
Baby, just keepin' track, yeah

Housefly
Tell me what you're thinkin' 'bout
Housefly
Tryna to really sort it out
Flying head-on into the plate glass window
Sniffing that DDT
Dumb bird
Flyin's comin' slowly to you
Dumb bird
Flyin' isn't holy to you
Headin' down South for the big celebration
You gotta ride for me
Know what I'm tellin' ya
