Mean Business - 2006 Digital Remaster
You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer
I've got my love gun loaded,
I've got you in my sight,
I never take no for an answer,
So you'd better say yes tonight
I told you the score
Right from the start,
You'll never get to heaven
If you break my heart
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me
You say you want my money,
I say you've got no sense,
If you just want to bleed me dry
Stay on your side of the fence
No mercy you can see
'Cos seven to eleven made a fool out of me
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me
You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me...
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer
I've got my love gun loaded,
I've got you in my sight,
I never take no for an answer,
So you'd better say yes tonight
I told you the score
Right from the start,
You'll never get to heaven
If you break my heart
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me
You say you want my money,
I say you've got no sense,
If you just want to bleed me dry
Stay on your side of the fence
No mercy you can see
'Cos seven to eleven made a fool out of me
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me
You're taking a walk on the wild side
If you're gonna take a chance with me,
I'm gonna make you take a look on the inside
And you might not like what you see
So don't you knock on my door
If you don't want an answer
Or gimme a beat
If you don't want a dancer
So if you don't mean business
Knock on someone else's door,
'Cos it's a mean mean business
Staying alive if you fool with me...
