[Verse 1]
Oh, so, you been trying to get ahead
But coming out empty handed
Losing all those friends you made instead
Oh, you pushed your way up to the top
You got so tall, you had to stop
Did you squint to see who you were steppin' on?

[Chorus]
Well, it's your secret to success
That's causing such a big mess
And to be honest, forgetting all of us
Now, that is just bad business

[Verse 2]
Now, you think you're worth your weight in gold
While everybody's looking like the color of money
We knew you when and we don't really think it's funny
Okay, I'm just hoping for that day
When your business life comes to an end
Deal with us just like people again

[Chorus]
'Cause you're just scheming on success
And only coming up with meager messiness
Oh yeah, well, you can sell, sell, sell
And never do well
When dealing in bad business
If you're planning to invest
Well, any day now, we'll be coming to collect
Oh yeah, well, you can sell sell sell
And never do well
When dealing in bad business
Yeah, bad business

[Outro]
It's a disease the way that greed and excess spreads
You never know, I could be next
