Lyrics Payin' The Cost To Be The Boss - Pat Benatar

Payin' The Cost To Be The Boss

You act like you won’t listen, when I’m talking to you
You think you oughta do baby, anything you wanna do
You must be crazy baby, you just gotta be out of your mind
As long as I’m payin' the bills, I’m payin' the cost to be the boss
I drink if I wanna, and play a little poker too
I don’t wanna hear nothing from your long as I’m takin' care of you
Long as I’m workin' baby, payin' all the bills
I don’t want no mouth from you 'bout the way I’m supposed to live
You must be crazy baby, ooh you gotta be out of your mind
As long as I’m puttin' the bill, I’m payin' the cost to be the boss
(Solo)
Now that you got me, honey, you act like you’re a shame
You don’t act like my man, you’re just choosin' my name
I’m gonna have all the money, baby, I don’t want no bad talk
(If) you don’t like how I’m doin', you can pick up your things and walk
You must be crazy baby, you just gotta be out of your mind
As long as I’m payin' the bill, I’m payin' the cost to be the boss
