Lyrics:
[Hook - Jim]
This is how we do
We the first big biz moguls in da US
This is how we do
No one got money like we do so show us some love
This is how we do
We the first big biz moguls in da US
This is how we do
No one got money like we do so show us some love
[Verse I - All]
Robber barons, unnhhh, Big trusts unnnh,
In-terlocking di-rec-tor-ates,
You know you want
Go on better run
When profits are up, we'll buy that, JUNK
You want, some
Mechaniza-tion
Knights of Labor think they can strike on us
We bust, them
Ready here we, come
Haymarket, unh
We call you anarch-ists,
Linkin those boards, one guy in each one
JP Morgan was doin, Gompers was sayin Unnhhh
Pass that ci-gar
These Gibson girls just wanna have, fun
Vander-BUILT
Rail-roads on the ton
Makin the nation ready for trade, unnnh
He's def one of the first robbern bar-unnhs
Jackin up those prices keep those farmers in the sun
[Verse II - Anhang]
I put that Bessemer process make sure that steel gets maaaade
Vertical integration, I'm best in the traaade
In one year mang, 40 mil was made
"Napoleon of the Smokestacks" that's what they call my name (Ah!)
Income, tax it, wasn't in, the way
I kept all my change, so that my chain hang low
You know I'm rockin from the Pittsburgh ar-ee-uh
With no middlemen
They say I'm no good
Cuz I'm so rich
Poor folks hate me in their town
So I wrote that Gospel of that wealth now
And y'all can't argue with me no more
They call us new money, say we have no class
We're from the bottom, we came up too fast
The heck if we care, We're just here to get our cash
Sure complain some mo, you'll have no more steel
[Hook - Jim]
[Verse III - Jim]
Some call me JD, but Y'all know I'm JP
I'm a big banker but I got a bigger nose
Hit one switch mang, pwned Car-ne-gie
Now I got my own US Steel Corp, with watered stock, unnh
Income, tax it, wasn't in, the way
I kept all my change, so that my chain hang low
You know it's the first bil dollar biz in the US
IR at its best (Ah!) [[put on screen: "Industrial Revolution"]]
[Verse IV - A.Wong]
Derrick, unh
Pipeline, unh
Rockefeller makin all that o-yol, run
Horizontal, what
Integra-tion, huh?
Consolidate comptition, 'n ya done
Homie, it's Game time
You ready? Here I come
Call the auto makers, tell 'em it'll be done
Cars will have, fuel
And I'll have my chedda
Tarbell blasted me
Had people like, "wha?"
Feds on my back
Say Standard oil's, trust
Thinkin I'm a punk
Taft bustin me up, yeh?
Now it's like Ex-xon
[Final Push - all together now]
Ready here it comes
The big busness era
We get this, cheddar
We get it even betta
Now that Freddy Tayluh
Scientific managetta
The flow works, betta
Than average
Production lines are savage
We manage
Any fools tryin to front on our clique (Robber Barons!)
nice try
