Its Only Business

It's Only Business, Nothing Personnel

Big Daddy was a cipher, a ghost, a non-person,
an intel operative, a spy, a spook, a secret agent man.
No one knew his real name, called him Big Daddy
Or his latest covert name, he did not exist officially.
When Big Daddy killed his victims, he would smile,
Saying to them, “Relax, Its only business,
Nothing personal, I like you, consider you a friend,
But it's all about the Benjamins”.
