No Mischief
Neil Finn

No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don’t need the aggravation
This ain’t no time for foolin’
Let’s get down to business
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don’t need the aggravation
No foolin’, let’s get down to business

There’s a crowd outside
That’s screaming for your blood
They want action now
From a man whose name is mud

They don’t want no mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don’t need the aggravation
This ain’t no time for foolin’
(No horseplay, it’s passé)
Let’s get down to business
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
You’re a constant irritation
The power goes to your head
So go get your brain read
Or you’ll be out of business

Private profiteer
Our loss is your gain
The things that we revere
You’re pouring down the drain
It’s no game
When you are a leader
People want to swear by you
So swear by the truth

Still I live in hope
That you might disappear
Off the face of the globe
We won’t miss you round here
Have no fear

No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
This ain’t no time for foolin’
(No horseplay, it’s passé)
Let’s get down to business
No mischief, no mischief, no mischief
I don’t need the aggravation
The power goes to your head
So go get your brain read
Or you’ll be out of business
No mischief, no I don’t want no mischief
