What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I been on my grind, building up my company
2
Rap guide on the rise, somethin' to see
3
Just like every business, it started with a vision
4
But winnin' the competition wasn't just a solo mission
5
No, I had schemes and revenue streams
6
But to achieve great things you need a dream team
7
So, I recruited England's sickest producer
8
Mr. Simmonds with the illest skills on a computer
9
We made some rap guides, reduced the nonsense
10
In the content, it was just proof of concept
11
Pretty soon we had a long back-catalogue
12
With the orders comin' in, just a mad backlog
13
Time to get some fresh blood, tap the talent pool
14
A bunch of young rappin' brainiacs with attitude
15
A business has to feel like a family group
16
It's only worth as much as its human capital
17
Human capital, it's tough to quantify
18
But without it your business will not survive
19
Human capital, it's tough to quantify
20
You gotta offer people more than just a nine to five
21
How did I get to be the master of this industry?
22
Mr. Infomatic? Happiness delivery
23
You gotta spread love, the top is a lonely place
24
Peace to Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh
25
Forget the old way, where the realm of business
26
Was synonymous with the realm of narrow self-interest
27
We need to reach consensus, breach defenses
28
And seek the best of each employees' unique perspective
29
That's a corporate policy that's worth acknowledging
30
It's something we've been polishing since before the Holocene
31
Humans are social primates with tribal roots
32
We thrive in groups to survive and reproduce
33
Which means gossip and reputation maintain
34
The invisible fabric of status in the blame game
35
And the praise game, two sides of the same thing
36
Just ask Bernie Madoff if he wants a name change
37
It's human capital, it's tough to quantify
38
But without it your business will not survive
39
Human capital, it's tough to quantify
40
You gotta offer people more than just a nine to five
41
Whatever industry you're in, whatever occupation
42
You need to learn about the science of cooperation
43
Don't let the insights of evolution evade you
44
Especially human behavior, including consumer behavior
45
Reciprocal exchanges are the most typical arrangements
46
But individual differences change things
47
The division of labor needs to be delegated
48
Internally, within firms, not in the yellow pages
49
Interns get promoted when they begin to earn
50
And then recruit their own interns, in turn
51
While the free market chooses between firms
52
Usually, some banks get bankruptcy insurance
53
That's crazy, that's when the state needs to regulate hard
54
That is, unless you want grenades in K-Mart
55
Fair play starts with the question: who's interested?
56
Citizens, families, employees, businesses
57
That's human capital, it's tough to quantify
58
But without it your business will not survive
59
Human capital, it's tough to quantify
60
You gotta offer people more than just a nine to five
