Business in the City

BUSINESS IN THE CITY:

VERSE 1:

BUSINESS IN THE CITY
IS SO INTENSE TO ME
I THINK IT IS A PITY
SUCCESS IN LIFE IS NEVER FREE
SO MUCH CUT THROAT ACTION
IS HOW THE SYSTEM OPERATES
WANT TO ADVANCE IN THIS LIFE
DON'T BE THE ONE EVERYBODY HATES

CHORUS:

THEY CALL IT BUSINESS IN THE CITY
NOT TALENT AND ABILITY
THEY CALL IT BUSINESS IN THE CITY
FORGET YOUR PERSONALITY

VERSE 2:

A BOSS OF OLD ONCE TOLD ME
I SHOULD THICKEN UP MY SKIN
BECAUSE BUSINESS IN THE CITY
IS FOR THE TOUGH NOT FOR THE THIN
BASED ON HER COMMENTARY
I NEED TO FIT INTO THIS MODE
IF I REMAIN WHO I AM
I'LL GET LEFT OUT IN THE COLD
(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:

THEY SAY DON'T TAKE IT PERSONAL
BUT ALL IT IS IS PERSONAL
CUS IT AIN'T ALWAYS PRETTY
DOING BUSINESS IN THE CITY
YOU SAID DON'T TAKE IT PERSONAL
AND I TRIED NOT TO TAKE IT PERSONAL
BUT MAN YOU REALLY TRIPPED ME
INTO BUSINESS IN THE CITY

BUSINESS IN THE CITY
BUSINESS IN THE CITY
BUSINESS IN THE CITY
(CHORUS)
