Attila`s Blues Lyrics

Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?

Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?



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?

As 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

Welcome one and all now to show, show business

Wouldn't have it any other way



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 down 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



Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?

Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?



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



Housefly

Tell me what you're thinkin' 'bout

Housefly

Tryin' 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

Heading down South for the big celebration, you got a ride for me

Know what I'm tellin' ya.



Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?

Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?

Show biz train, baby won't you climb on board?
