Business Time
Words and music by Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement
This should be the original song recorded in the album.
Gm Cm Dm
Girl,
Gm
Tonight we're gonna make love
Gm
You know how I know? Beacuse it's Wednesday,
Gm Cm Dm
And Wednesday night is night that we usually make love.
Gm
Monday night is my night to cook
Gm
Tuesday night we go and visit your mother,
Gm Cm Dm
But Wednesday we make, sweet weekly love.
Gm
That's when everything is just right
Gm
There's nothing good on TV
Gm
You haven't had your after-work social sports team practice
So you are not too tired
Gm
Oh, boy, it's all on
Gm
You lean in and whisper something sexy in my ear like,
Gm
"I might go to bed now. I have work in the morning."
Gm
I know what you're trying to say, girl
Cm Cm Dm Gm
You're trying to say, "Oh yeah, It's business time,
Gm G
It's business time."
[CHORUS]
Cm
It's business,
Dm Gm
It's business time. I know what you're trying to say.
Gm
You're trying to say it's time for business. It's business time, ooh
Cm
It's business,
Dm Gm Gm6
It's business time.

Gm
Then we're in the bathroom brushing our teeth
Gm Cm Dm Gm
That's all part of the foreplay, I love foreplay
Gm
Then you sort out the recycling
Gm
That isn't part of the foreplay process, but it is still very important
Gm
Next thing you know, we're in the bedroom.
Gm
You're wearing that baggy old ugly T-Shirt
Gm
you got from your work several years ago
Gm
Mm, you know the one, baby, with the color stain.
Gm
I remove my clothes very, very clumsily,
Gm
Tripping sensuosly over my pants
Gm
Now I'm naked except for my socks
Gm
And you know when I'm down to my socks what time it is.
[CHORUS]
Cm
It's business,
Dm Gm
It's business time, You know when I'm down to my sock,
Gm
It's time for business. That's why they're called business socks, ooh
Cm
It's business,
Dm Gm Gm6
It's business time.
Gm Gm
Making love, Making love for
Gm Gm
Making love for two, Making love for two minutes
Gm
When it's with me girl, you only need two minutes,
Gm
Because I'm so intense
Gm
You whisper something sexy like: "Is that it?",
Gm
I know what you're trying to say, girl
Gm
You're trying to say, "Oh yeah, that's it"
Gm
And then you tell me you want some more.
Gm
Well, uh, I'm not surprise but I'm quite sleepy.
[CHORUS]
Cm
It's business,
Dm Gm
It's business time.
Gm
Business hours are over, baby
