The Business of Emotion Lyrics

I been watching you
I'm gonna get you high
The things I do to you
Gonna make you cry

Doesn't matter if you like it or not
Doesn't matter if you don't wanna play my game
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
You gotta participate

Doesn't matter if you need it or not
Doesn't matter to me 'cause you're all the same
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
Now there's no escape

Feel good
Make you feel good
I'm looking for emotion
So I know just what to show you
I can see you
See your answers
This business of emotion
Yeah I know just what to show you, baby

There's no consequence
Gonna rob you blind
Feed my experiments
Gonna bleed you dry

Doesn't matter if you like it or not
Doesn't matter if you don't wanna play my game
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
You gotta participate

Doesn't matter if you need it or not
Doesn't matter to me 'cause you're all the same
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
Now there's no escape

Feel good
Make you feel good
I'm looking for emotion
So I know just what to show you
I can see you
See your answers
This business of emotion
Yeah I know just what to show you, baby

Heart and soul
Bought and sold
It's good as gold
This business of emotion

Heart and soul
Bought and sold
It's good as gold
This business of emotion

Doesn't matter if you like it or not
Doesn't matter if you don't wanna play my game
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
You gotta participate

Doesn't matter if you need it or not
Doesn't matter to me 'cause you're all the same
Should I never ever ever forgot
You signed up
Now there's no escape

Feel good
Make you feel good
This business of emotion
Yeah I know just what to show you

Feel good
Make you feel good
I'm looking for emotion
So I know just what to show you
I can see you
See your answers
This business of emotion
Yeah I know just what to show you, baby

Doesn't matter if you like it or not
Doesn't matter if you don't wanna play my game
Yeah I know just what to show you, baby

Doesn't matter if you need it or not
Doesn't matter to me 'cause you're all the same
Yeah I know just what to show you, baby

What is the Meaning of The Business of Emotion?

eureka profile

In a digital world dominated by surveillance and data manipulation, this track explores the commodification of human emotions for profit. The lyrics depict a scenario where individuals are unwittingly subjected to emotional exploitation, driven by unseen forces that manipulate their feelings and behaviors. The repeated lines, "Doesn't matter if you like it or not" and "You signed up," emphasize the lack of agency, suggesting that participation in this emotional economy is inescapable. The song criticizes how personal data is harvested and weaponized, transforming genuine human experiences into mere tools for commercial gain. The phrase "Heart and soul, bought and sold" poignantly captures the reduction of intricate human emotions to marketable commodities, while "This business of emotion" underscores the transactional nature of this exploitation. Ultimately, the track serves as a stark commentary on the intrusive and dehumanizing aspects of contemporary data-driven marketing practices.
