 In a line_  at the café  I overheard  the waitress say
'These  cats is broke, I knows  'em  Throw 'em out the doors and close  'em.Get ‘em outta here!’
 Spirits sagging,  funds are low  This occupation's got  to go
 Up  pulls a limo, up goes  a thrill  The suits are picking up the bill
 It's al-right for them to tag along____
 It's just one bill they’re tacking on___
   I __‘ll find some way to get a - long
 The  business suits to the res  – cue
So  nice doing business with  you You will__
 real  - ly ape and clown  When you realize  the dough they’re shelling out
 for the deal'  The suits  are picking up,  the suits are picking up the bill!
 I cannot say from where I'm stan  - ding
 My friends have passed out on the lan  - ding
 Guess one too many has left  us high and dry____
 I’ll be feeling down,  ‘till the suits  are back in town
