Ed mann (percussion)
Scott thunes (bass)
Chad wackerman (drums) I signed on the line
For seven long years
They said I'd be a big star
They said I'd get a big car
All the coke I could tube
All the dope I could shoot
All the smoke I could smoke
But now I'm bein' off 'n broke They said I oughta re-record
The tracks of my tears
They said: "hey! this is it!
It's gonna be a big hit"
With my name up in lights
And some custom-made tights
All the girls call my name
(massimo!)
But it was all just a game *** biznis
*** biznis
Well, *** biznis all the time
Well, *** biznis has brought disaster
On top of this here heart of mine (well, now's the time to play the blues!) Well, one day that contract will expire
One day I will be free
From that nig-ger, nig-gig-gig-ger, *** biznis
All this *** biznis
All this repressing me *** biznis
*** biznis
Oh, *** biznis all the time, all along
Well, *** biznis has brought destruction
Which is why you're here in this song
