Big Business Songtext
von Dr. Syntax

So, let′s get this straight, you're 15
You′ve been expelled from school, oh, and you're a bad man
You dun know

This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team
This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won′t need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we'll put you on the street and hook you up with a team


Okay, first things first, you aced the interview
You were named the favorite when we came to pick and choose
With your experience, there isn′t an equivalent
The only candidate who's had his face all up in the news already
We could see you ticked all our boxes
With your proven history of pissing off coppers
Your first training will be in communication skills
Convincing kids these Aspirins are really some amazing pills
Now let me take you through our annual targets

Discuss business plans and where we stand in the market

Our bag-snatching and our happy-slapping′s the fastest
But what we'd like to say is that our gang is now the hardest
In the borough, for that your work will have to be thorough
The competition′s pretty fierce here, as you'll discover
But good luck, and I'm sure you′ll put that acumen to use
And I′ll see you back here for your annual review

This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team
This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team


Well, what can I say? I had a feeling you'd be brilliant at this
An ambassador for how our business is practiced
Just in one year, you′ve really lifted the standards
In car theft, robbery and criminal damage
I have to say I'm slightly concerned with your attendance
You're supposed to be out on roads, 24/7
What′s this all about? You′ve enrolled in a college
When you're old enough, just sign on the dole for some profit
You′ve got so much hate and no restraint

It would be a total shame if it goes to waste

All the shops around here know your face
The only job you could get would only pay a paltry wage
That won't be raised, you want the gold, the chains
The dough, the fame, the dope Mercedes
Loads of ladies that know your name

Let′s set a goal today, you sold some eights
But coke will make you overpaid with no delay

This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team
This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we'll put you on the street and hook you up with a team

Yeah, you made it kid, you hit the big time
You′re in the paper and they′re saying it's a sick crime
Now they know none of your victims are lying
Just don′t think about how your mum and sister are crying
And that lad you stabbed, hundreds of children are dying
But the point is now it's bigger fish you′ll be frying

And you'll get a couple of years, if you′re unlucky six
But once you're out, you'll be someone no one will be fucking with

That′s when the real fun begins, you′ll be running things
People mustering like, "Shit, do you know who that nutter is?
Don't catch his eye, he stabbed that guy!"
Could you have earned this much respect serving Big Macs and fries?
Ha, now it′s too late to give that a try
But that's alright ′cause you know that doesn't matter, right?
I′ve got to make tracks now, I've got plans tonight
But I'll be back to visit, don′t worry, I′m a stand-up guy

Hahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahaha
It went too far
I made a mistake
I didn't mean it
I didn′t want this
I wanna go home

This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team
This is how to make it in big business
All you need to do is read the news
You can see how big this is
You won't need a suit, just a hoodie and jeans
And we′ll put you on the street and hook you up with a team
