Oh, here’s a story about a busy man…
Verse 1
I know a man named Billy
He’s got almost everything
Three stories, two cars, one swimming pool
And some broken parts of an empty heart
And I’m thinkin’…
Chorus
Billy, Billy, Billy, you’re a very busy man
But you’re running with your eyes closed
You could be missing life all along the way
And you’d never even know it
You’re a busy man, Billy, Billy, you’re a busy man
Just too busy, man
You’re too busy, man
Verse 2
You’ve got a lot of nice things there, Billy
But they’ve cost you more than you know
‘Cause what is it really worth, can you tell me
If you’re gaining the world
But you’re losing your soul
And I’m thinkin’…
Chorus
Hey, Billy, Billy, you’re a very busy man (busy)
But you’re running with your eyes closed
Looks like you traded life for the things you have
Not the thing you really wanted
You’re a busy man Billy, Billy, you’re a busy man
Just too busy, man
Bridge
So, when the day is over
And the lights go out
Do you ever stop and wonder
Wonder what it’s all about?
Wonder what it’s all about?
You wonder what it’s all about
Hey, Billy do you ever wonder
What it’s all about?
You wonder what it’s all about
Is this what it’s all about?
Hey, Billy, I can tell you’re wonderin’
Oh, you’re such a busy, busy man
Chorus
Yeah, Billy, Billy, Billy, you’re a very busy man (busy)
But you’re running with your eyes closed (eyes closed)
You could be missing life all along the way
And you’d never even know it
You’re a busy man Billy, Billy, you’re a busy man
Just too busy, busy, busy man
Billy, Billy, you’re a busy man
You gotta stop, Billy
Outro
Oh, you’re way too busy, man
You need to slow down
You need to take a look around you
Busy, busy man
Slow down, busy man
Take a look around you
When it’s all said and done
Tell me, what’s it gonna come to?
Tell me, busy man
Slow down, busy man
Take a look around you
When it’s all said and done
Tell me, what’s it gonna come to?
