Big Shot |
| You went uptown riding in your limousine |
| In your fine Park Avenue clothes |
| You had the Dom Perignon in your hand |
| And the spoon up your nose |
| And when you wake up in the morning |
| With your head on fire |
| And your eyes too bloody to see |
| Go on and cry in your coffee |
| But don’t come bitchin’to me Because you had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| You had to open up your mouth |
| You had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| All your friends were so knocked out |
| You had to have the last word, last night |
| You know what everything’s about |
| You and to have a white hot spotlight |
| You had to be a big shot last night |
| They were all impressed with your Halston dress |
| And the people you knew at Elaine’s |
| And the story of your latest success |
| Kept 'em so entertained |
| But now you jsut can’t remember |
| All the things you said |
| And you’re not sure you want to know |
| I’ll give you one hint, honey |
| You sure did put on a show |
| Yes, yes, you had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| You had to prove it to the crowd |
| You had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| All your friends were so knocked out |
| You hand to the last word, last night |
| You’re so much fun to be around |
| You had to have the front page, bold type |
| You had to be a big shot last night |
| Well, it’s no big sin to stick your two cents in If you know when to leave it alone |
| But you went over the line |
| You couldn’t see it was time to go home |
| No, no, no, no, no, no, you had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| You had to open up your mouth |
| You had to be a big shot, didn’t you |
| All your friends were so knocked out |
| You had to have the last word, last night |
| So much fun to be around |
| You had to have a white hot spotlight |
| You had to be a big shot last night |
