Lyrics

Tell me why, Mr. Businessman
'Cause you don't seem to understand
That I can't dedicate my life to you, yeah
Listen here (listen here) Mr. Businessman
You dictate (you dictate) and manipulate
And decide (and decide) everything that I should do
Woah
You laugh at fools
You got no time for losers (laugh at fools, got no time for losers)
And you believe that my hard luck is none of your concern
Woah, Mr. Businessman
You tell me that you haven't got the time
'Cause you believe that money makes a man, Mr. Businessman
Got to, got to, got to, got to have me, oh
Businessman (Businessman)
What's your recipe for success? (For success)
And security you enjoy (you enjoy)
All the luxuries you got, yeah
Businessman (Businessman) what's your destiny?
Do you give some to charity?
When you die, (when you die) someone else will take the line
Oh
You laugh at fools because you are a winner (laugh at fools because you are a winner)
You've reached the top but what you've got you're not prepared to lose
Oh, Mr. Businessman, you tell me that you haven't got the time
'Cause you believe that money makes the man
Mr. Businessman, I just can't take no more you've got to, got to give me, you're
Mr. Businessman
I've taken just as much as I can stand
Exploited me in every way you can
Mr. Businessman
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, mama you're
Mr. Businessman
You tell me that you haven't got the time
'Cause you believe that money makes the man
Mr. Businessman
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Mr. Businessman
You tell me that you haven't got the time
Exploited me in every way you can
