Busy Doing Nothing - Bing Crosby (Jimmy Van Heusen & Johnny Burke) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QxvPXK3Gv4 [Intro] La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la [Chorus] We’re busy doin’ noth-ing Workin’ the whole day through Try-in’ to find lots of things not to do We’re busy goin’ no-where Isn’t it just a crime We’d like to be unhappy but We never do have the time [Verse] I have to watch the river To see that it doesn’t stop And stick around the rosebuds So they’ll know when to pop And keep the crickets cheer-ful They’re really a sol-emn bunch Hustle bus-tle And only an hour for lunch [Break] La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la [Chorus] We’re busy doin’ noth-ing Workin’ the whole day through Try-in’ to find lots of things not to do We’re busy goin’ no-where Isn’t it just a crime We’d like to be unhappy but We never do have the time [Verse] I have to wake the Sun up He’s liable to sleep all day And then inspect the rainbows So they’ll be bright and gay I must rehearse the songbirds To see that they sing in key Hustle bustle And never a moment free [Chorus] We’re busy doin’ noth-ing Workin’ the whole day through Try-in’ to find lots of things not to do We’re busy goin’ no-where Isn’t it just a crime We’d like to be unhappy but We never do have the time [Verse] I have to meet a turtle I’m teachin’ him how to swim Then I have to shine the dewdrops they’re looking rather dim I told my friend the robin I’d buy him a brand new vest Hustle bustle I wish I could take a rest [Chorus] We’re busy doin’ noth-ing Workin’ the whole day through Try-in’ to find lots of things not to do We’re busy goin’ no-where Isn’t it just a crime We’d better make it snappy There’s another hill to climb We’d like to be unhappy but We never do have the time

Cette chanson évoque l'absurdité de notre rythme de vie moderne, où l'on se trouve constamment occupé sans véritablement accomplir quoi que ce soit. Les paroles décrivent un quotidien chargé de tâches futiles, comme veiller sur la nature et s'occuper des petites choses sans importance, alors qu'au fond, il n'y a pas de réel sens à tout cela. Le contexte pourrait faire allusion à nos vies trépidantes, où l'on se laisse happer par le besoin d'être toujours occupé, même à rien faire. Cela reflète une réalité où l'on court sans cesse après le temps, au point de négliger les moments de véritable simplicité et de repos.
