Nig Biz

Lyrics

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

Nigger Biznis Nigger Biznis Well, Nigger Biznis all the time Well, Nigger 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, Nigger Biznis All this Nigger Biznis All this repressing me Nigger Biznis Nigger Biznis Oh, Nigger Biznis all the time, all along Well, Nigger Biznis has brought destruction Which is why you're here in this song
