Big Shot

作詞：     作曲：

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 had 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 that you knew at Elaine's And the story of your latest success
Kept 'em so entertained But now you just 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 had to have 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
