There's no business like e-business like no business I know
Everybody's website is appealing
Everything the traffic thinks is hip
But you get that satisfying feeling
when you are stealing
their JavaScript!
There's none colder than stock holders they sell when you go low
One day's SJ Merc declares that you're a bomb
Then Palm burns you in their E-Prom
Next day's Wall Street Journal links to YOU DOT COM!
"This company is a Go! This company is a Go."
The biddings, the askings, the mergers, the flops
The guru who falls right into your lap
The log files, recoveries, the abends, the stops,
The ERP that won't stop messaging your App!
The Launch when you're prepared for DSL!
Release date when the product doesn't sell.
There's no Commerce like e-Commerce like no Commerce I know
One day your accountant says "it's over."
Phones ring off the hook at your VC
Then a merger leverages you some clover
And you take over their B2B!
There's no people like e-people - they loved your IPO
One day products moving and your site is packed.
Sales are booming! .Your server's maxed!
Next day Congress hits you with a Web sales tax!
But go on with the Show!
This company is a Go!
