billy joel – big shot (kohuept) lyrics
well, you went uptown ridin’ in your limousine
with your fine park avenue clothes
u had the dom perignon in your hand, the spoon up your nose
ooh, and when you wake up in the mornin’ with your head on fire
your eyes too bl–dy to see
go on and cry in your coffee but don’t come b-tchin’ to me
because you had to be a big shot, didn’t cha
you had to open up your mouth
you had to be a big shot, didn’t cha
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, oh oh oh oh oh…yeah!
well—good catch!—they were all impressed
with your halston dress, the people that you knew at elaine’s
and the story of your latest success, you kept ’em so entertained
aw but now you just don’t remember all the things you said
you’re not sure that 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 cha
you had to prove it to the crowd
you had to be a big shot, didn’t cha
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, oh oh
oh oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh whoa who-oo-oo-oo-ah,
oh oh oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh whoa.
well, it’s no big sin to stick your two cents in
you know when to leave it alone
but you went over the line, u couldn’t see it was time to go home
no no no no no no
you had to be a big shot, didn’t cha
you had to open up your mouth
you had to be a big shot, didn’t cha
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 the white hot spotlight
you had to be a big shot last night, oh oh
oh oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh whoa who-oo-oo-oo-ah,
oh oh oh whoa whoa oh, oh oh whoa.
ow (big shot) come on, whoa! (big shot) man one time!
whoa! whoa! (big shot)
better listen to all the songs right here when you sing about that!
(big shot)
that’s so loud, you don’t think this is the right economics?
(big shot) i don’t know! now, come on, man!
this is workin’ out! whoa! (big shot)
now you do have a calling card for a victim on a mirror?
(big shot)
the edge! the edge! you have to be a big shot! whoa!
(big shot) well, i’m okay! now where are they? you got—whoa!
when i get down to the funk
