Kevin Myles Wilson Ode to a Businessman lyrics

I wanna put on my suit
And tighten my tie
Take the train downtown
And work from 9 to 5
From Monday to Friday if I can
'Cause I wanna be a businessman

A poor musician
If every girls dream
But not if he's still struggling
When he's 43
At that age, they want someone with a plan
'Cause I wanna be a businessman

But to be honest I love
I love being at home
Ideally I don't want to spend my whole life
On the road
'Cause I don't know how much traveling I could stand
So I wanna be a businessman


But deep down inside, there's this feeling I get
And you wouldn't understand, unless you've felt it
It's like you've had 5 drinks, when you haven't had a sip
And I feel it
Every time I do this!

Someday I want to
Support a big family
But I can't do that
On my server's salary
And it's so hard to make a living
In a band

But I just can't be
No, I just can't be
'Cause I don't wanna be
A businessman
