Getting To the Top
Dirty three piece suit,
walking with a vagabond attitude
Unregulated behavior,
got values that white collar pollute
You do whatever it takes
to get to the top
Willing to pay whatever the cost
to wipe the competition out
Getting low down dirty
to get to the top,
don’t bother you at all
Unscrupulous practices
are used to takeover a rival
All is fair in the business world
Stepping on and over anybody
to get to the top,
never seemed to concern you at all
You mockingly say:
better learn how to play hardball
The bottom line must always show
stock option growth ... black numerical
That will get you to the top
in no time
Business profits wear
heavy dividend wolf skin
Your sly, foxy mentor said: being
a corporate predator
was your true calling
Getting down in the gutter dirty
don’t faze you at all
Hurting others on the way up,
it mostly ain’t ever personal
Getting to the top ...
only cost to you was your soul
