He said, "You've got the goods to make the big time" |
|
And then he puffed on his cigar |
|
We'll make a killing, We'll get top billing |
|
I'm gonna make you a star |
|
First we'll improve a bit on mother nature |
|
I've got a doctor friend you see |
|
Imagination, Plus augmentation |
|
Viola! A brand new me |
|
To get to the big time you need big time looks |
|
A shady accountant who can cook the books |
|
A couple of well-placed friends, |
|
Some dynamite eight-by-tens |
|
Before you can reap those big time dividends |
|
Before you know it I was moving up there |
|
Don Perignon and caviar |
|
A late night "Yes sir", leads to good press sir |
|
And takes a girl pretty far |
|
So now my name's in lights above the title |
|
Or it's not on the dotted line |
|
On the back lots now, I call the shots now |
|
When there's a contract to sign |
|
I'm up in the big time, so I make them wait |
|
I'm up in the big time, so I'm always late |
|
I tell them all "Let's do lunch", |
|
Then give them that one, two, punch |
|
I'm part of the big brass, first class, big time bunch |
|
Big! Big time! Big time games! |
|
I Hit the right places |
|
I Cover my bases |
|
I Do what I have to |
|
Smile till it hurts baby, |
|
Wear shorter skirts baby, |
|
Cry in a pinch baby, |
|
But I won't dare give a single square inch, baby! |
|
Up here in the big time, I've got big time friends |
|
Who wanna make sure my big time never ends |
|
My motto is "I've got mine", I live on the bottom line |
|
Up here in the a-team, wet dream, big, big time |
|
It's comin' up roses, |
|
And Barrymore noses |
|
Worth all the sweat dear |
|
Worth it? - You bet! |
|
When you make the climb, |
|
From the nickel and dime, |
|
To the simply sublime... |
|
Big time! |
