This Business of Love Wall of Voodoo

This business of love will never do
Not for me and not for you
This business of love will never die
Not for you and not for I
This business of love will never do

On a midtown bus at 5 pm
He and she begin to fight again
Knees buckle under and heads are tossed
As the bus hits brakes and her words heat up
About money, time, and remembered slights
"Your career takes away my nights"
Packed so close and packed so tight
Her hissing words like a fuse ignites
Him to implode—man overboard
Undermined, he overloads
Over all he does and all she owes
It's sin for sin, it's blow for blow
As he wages his holy war
She just don't want to hear no more
She runs to the rear, she pulls the cord
And he chases her to the door
Got off the bus
And then she said

This business of love will never do
Not for me and not for you
This business of love will never die
Not for you and not for I
This business of love will never do
Not for me and not for you
