<< Back to Flight of the Conchords Song List
Version 1BUSINESS TIME ============= *this is based on the HBO TV Series. I think the lyrics from the Album version are Slightly different, but the chords are the same. It also sounds better if you mute the chords now and then as you play them. If you listen to the song you'll hear what i mean.
