Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Walk into that boardroom, speak their native tongue
Revenue streams and margins, where the profit's sprung
EBITDA's the heartbeat, burn rate tells the tale
Runway shows survival, unit economics never fail
Connect your HR projects to the bottom line today
Show them cold hard numbers, watch resistance fade away

[Chorus]
Money talks and margins matter most
Revenue, EBITDA, that's your host
Burn rate, runway, unit cost
Know these terms or you'll be lost
Speak the language, speak it clear
Business fluency starts right here

[Verse 2]
Decode your business model, how the cash flows in
Value chain's the backbone, where does labor begin?
Find your spot on P&L, labor costs in view
Manufacturing margins? Service revenue?
Understand the engine that keeps your company alive
Then position talent as the force that helps it thrive

[Chorus]
Money talks and margins matter most
Revenue, EBITDA, that's your host
Burn rate, runway, unit cost
Know these terms or you'll be lost
Speak the language, speak it clear
Business fluency starts right here

[Bridge]
Industry dynamics, competition's fierce
Regulatory changes that your sector pierce
Market trends and forces shaping every move
Not just employment law, but what makes profits groove

[Verse 3]
NPS and churn rate, throughput by the hour
Cycle time and defects, operational power
Whatever metrics drive your leadership team's decisions
HR strategy connects through precise analytical visions
Speak their KPI language, show the people impact clear
Transform from cost center to strategic pioneer

[Chorus]
Money talks and margins matter most
Revenue, EBITDA, that's your host
Burn rate, runway, unit cost
Know these terms or you'll be lost
Speak the language, speak it clear
Business fluency starts right here

[Outro]
Financial literacy opens every door
Strategic influence starts right at the core
