I wanted to be on a stage |
|
With bright lights shinin' on me |
|
At Carnegie I polished up my act |
|
Knew the crowd can see |
|
I had a knack sand that's a fact |
|
Glamor and fame |
|
Was much more than a crazy game |
|
I had to play now I got my wish |
|
I don't know if I can handle this |
|
But I think I'm gonna win |
|
In the big time, big time |
|
And I know success is all mine, all mine |
|
In the big time, big time |
|
Gonna have the best of times |
|
So I made it there |
|
And an Asian hand was my cadre |
|
Star of the year following the steps |
|
I'm the best in Broadway |
|
East and West |
|
I passed the test |
|
It's all too much |
|
With the interviews |
|
Reviews and such |
|
I'm very touched |
|
And I closed my mind |
|
All the autographs I have to sign |
|
When there's so little time |
|
And I'm in the big time, big time |
|
And I know success is all mine, all mine |
|
In the big time, big time |
|
Gonna have the best of times |
|
I was born to funk |
|
I was born to funk in |
|
Roll in the big time |
|
He was born to funk |
|
He was born to funk in |
|
Roll in the big time |
|
I was born to funk |
|
I was born to funk in |
|
Roll in the big time |
|
He was born to funk |
|
He was born to funk in |
|
Roll in the big time |
|
He was born to funk |
|
He was born to funk in |
|
Roll in the big time |
|
Now in the big time |
|
Gonna have myself a fine time |
|
Now in the big time |
|
Gonna have myself some fun |
|
