Joel Billy - Big Shot Lyrics
You went uptown riding in your limousineIn your fine park avenue clothesYou had the dom perignon in your handAnd the spoon up your noseAnd when you wake up in the morningWith your head on fireAnd your eyes too bloody to seeGo on and cry in your coffeeBut dont come *****in to meBecause you had to be a big shot, didnt youYou had to open up your mouthYou had to be a big shot, didnt youAll your friends were so knocked outYou had to have the last word, last nightYou know what everythings aboutYou had to have a white hot spotlightYou had to be a big shot last nightThey were all impressed with your halston dressAnd the people that you knew at elainesAnd the story of your latest successKept em so entertainedBut now you just cant rememberAll the things you saidAnd youre not sure you want to knowIll give you one hint, honeyYou sure did put on a showYes, yes, you had to be a big shot, didnt youYou had to prove it to the crowdYou had to be a big shot, didnt youAll your friends were so knocked outYou had to have the last word, last nightYoure so much fun to be aroundYou had to have the front page, bold typeYou had to be a big shot last nightWell, its no big sin to stick your two cents inIf you know when to leave it aloneBut you went over the lineYou couldnt see it was time to go homeNo, no, no, no, no, no, you had to be a big shot, didnt youYou had to open up your mouthYou had to be a big shot, didnt youAll your friends were so knocked outYou had to have the last word, last nightSo much fun to be aroundYou had to have a white hot spotlightYou had to be a big shot last night
