Is It Anybody's Business
To The Times:
I If a person's on the sidewalk.
Whether great or whether small,
| Is it anybody's business
Who that person does talk to?
Or if you see a person
While their calling any where.
Is it any of your business
What their business may be there?
The substance of my query.
Simply stated would be this:
It is anybody's business
What another's business Is
Whether 'tis or whether 'tisa't
I would really like to know
For I'm certain If It isn't
All our gossipers make It so
