Open a door | |
On the seventeenth floor | |
Secretary sends me through | |
Walkin’ right in | |
With a big time grin | |
But I’m shakin’ in my shoes | |
Suit One shakes my hand | |
But it takes him a beat to recall my name | |
Gotta move it along | |
Gotta play somethin’ strong | |
Gotta show ‘em why I came | |
Work the room | |
Work the room, baby | |
Nobody here wants to know you | |
But tomorrow they’ll be talkin’ about you | |
Work the room | |
Startin’ in sweet | |
With a rockin’ beat | |
Show ‘em I can really ride | |
Not about fluff | |
Get to serious stuff | |
Here’s my softer side | |
Suit Two frowns | |
Is it bringin’ him down? | |
Or does it mean he’s in the groove? | |
Back to the beat | |
Activatin’ their feet | |
See the Pradas start to move | |
Work the room | |
They’re movin’ | |
Oh baby | |
Watch them beginnin’ to wonder | |
You can bet tomorrow | |
They’ll have serious hunger | |
Work the room | |
Go one step up | |
Or all the way back | |
Take the turns | |
Or jump the track | |
Rise an inch – or fall for a mile | |
All the time remember to smile | |
Stoppin’ the show | |
But they don’t say go | |
Suddenly smiles all ‘round | |
Man oh man | |
We’re shakin’ hands | |
Telling me they like my sound | |
Big Suit smilin’ at me | |
Talkin’ about sales and fame | |
Everybody’s talkin’ to me | |
Makin’ it like I got it | |
Dammit now they know my name! | |
Work the room | |
They want me | |
I got it! | |
You went in an unsung zero | |
You’re comin’ out a musical hero | |
Never gonna have to work the room again! |
Open a door | |
On the seventeenth floor | |
Secretary sends me through | |
Walkin' right in | |
With a big time grin | |
But I' m shakin' in my shoes | |
Suit One shakes my hand | |
But it takes him a beat to recall my name | |
Gotta move it along | |
Gotta play somethin' strong | |
Gotta show ' em why I came | |
Work the room | |
Work the room, baby | |
Nobody here wants to know you | |
But tomorrow they' ll be talkin' about you | |
Work the room | |
Startin' in sweet | |
With a rockin' beat | |
Show ' em I can really ride | |
Not about fluff | |
Get to serious stuff | |
Here' s my softer side | |
Suit Two frowns | |

Or does it mean he' s in the groove? | |
