Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She found the file drawer
Full of missing names
Hallway after hallway
Same old paper games
Mothers at the window
Hands against the glass
Nobody gave a reason
Just a signed-off pass
[Pre-Chorus]
And the silence grew legs
On a Friday ride
Every locked-up answer
Had a price tag inside
[Chorus]
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Little lives on a line
Tell me how, tell me how
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Who gets paid when they cry?
Who gets paid now?
[Verse 2]
Georgia roads were burning
Under summer rain
She kept asking questions
Got the same refrain
Counselors, clerks, and courtrooms
Turning blind as stone
Kids in numbered folders
Sent away from home
[Pre-Chorus]
And the story got loud
In a county room
Every stamped-out answer
Carried just one gloom
[Chorus]
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Little lives on a line
Tell me how, tell me how
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Who gets paid when they cry?
Who gets paid now?
[Bridge]
If a child goes quiet
Who hears that call?
If a door keeps closing
Who stands in the hall?
She lit up the corners
Let the truth come through
One voice in the dark
Still asking for you
[Chorus]
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Little lives on a line
Tell me how, tell me how
It’s a business now
It’s a business now
Who gets paid when they cry?
Who gets paid now?
