Smoke

I turned my head and saw yet another wisp of smoke
On its way to nothingness
A solitary person, completely alone
No children, no family, no friends
Yet working obsessively late into the night
Compulsively greedy for more and more
Never bothering to ask
Why am I working like a dog
Never having any fun
And who cares
More smoke
A bad business
A bad business
A bad business

It's better to have a partner than go it alone
Share the work
Share the wealth
If one falls down, if one falls down
The other helps
By yourself you're unprotected
With a friend you can face the worst
Its better to have a partner than go it alone

Can't you see its only smoke
Can't you see its only smoke
Can't you see its only smoke
What a waste
A bad business.

I turned my head and saw yet another wisp of smoke
On its way to nothingness
A solitary person completely alone
