Lyrics Back in Business (Dick Tracy) - Stephen Sondheim

Yesterday it seemed the world was about to end,
(Didn't it?)
Looked as though it wouldn't last out the year.
Yesterday disaster waited around the bend.
Well, my friend...
Spring is here!

Back in business, and ain't it grand?
Let the good times roll.
Yesterday things were out of hand,
Now they're under control.

Bye-bye blues, so long adversity,
Happiness, hello! (Hello! Hello!)
Keep the status quo...
Permanently so!

Back again like a boomerang,
Same old stand, same old gang!
Back in business with a bang!
Let the good times roll!

Yesterday it seemed we would never smile again,
(Didn't it?)
Didn't matter what we ventured or how,
Looked as though the fun was over till who knew then,
That was then...
This is now.

Back in business, and ain't it grand?
Let the good times roll.
Yesterday things were out of hand,
Now they're under control.

Back to normal, back to usual,
Let the fun resume. (Wow! Wow!)
No more doom and gloom...
No more bust, just boom!

Back in business and overnight,
In demand,
Well, alright!
Business is just dynamite!
Let the good times roll! (Oooh! Oooh! Oooh!)
