(Shel Silverstein)
|
|
Elvis he's a hero he's a superstar
|
And I hear that Paul McCartney drives a Rolls Royce car
|
And Dylan sings for millions
|
And I just sing for free
|
Oh everybody's makin' it big but me
|
|
Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
|
Everybody's makin' it big but me
|
Neil Diamond sings for diamonds
|
And here's ole rhinestone me
|
Oh everybody's makin' it big but me
|
|
Well I hear that Alice Cooper's got a foxy chick
|
To wipe off his snake, and keep him rich
|
And Elton John's got two fine ladies
|
And Doctor John's got three
|
And I'm still seein' them same old sleezoes, that I used to see
|
|
Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
|
Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me
|
I've got charisma
|
And personality
|
Oh how come everybody's makin' it big but me?
|
|
(What's wrong with that?)
|
(I don't see nothing wrong with it Ray)
|
|
Well I paint my face with glitter
|
Just like Bowie does
|
And I wear the same mascara
|
That Mick Jagger does
|
And I even put some lipstick on
|
But that just hurt my dad and mom
|
And everybody's makin' it big but me
|
|
Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me
|
Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me
|
They got groupies for their bands
|
And all I got is my right hand
|
And everybody's makin' it big but me
|
|
Everybody's makin' it, makin' it, makin' it
|
Everybody's makin' it big......
