La chanson évoque le monde du commerce et les relations parfois froides qui s'y établissent. Elle met en avant un personnage qui se considère comme un homme d'affaires avisé, prêt à tout pour réussir. Il promet richesse et renommée à ceux qui acceptent de jouer son jeu, mais se montre indifférent aux liens d'amitié ou de confiance. Pour lui, l'essentiel reste de faire des affaires et de ne pas se laisser distraire par des sentiments personnels. Ce morceau est issu de l'album "Ferguslie Park" et il capture bien l'esprit pragmatique et les tensions de l'univers entrepreneurial des années 70.
