He told it to the monkeys and they didn't talk back
|
Then he told the old iguana and he didn't attack
|
|
They told me before I started
|
That it never ever would work out
|
Stay in school, don't be afool
|
But I had to see what life is about
|
|
So I went to Biloxi seeking fortune and fame
|
I got hired, I got fired, I got called dirty names
|
You'll never never work in dis bidness again
|
No you'll never, no never
|
Never work in dis bidness again
|
|
I knew I needed representation
|
and I found it one night in a bar
|
He was a bondsman and a part time agent
|
And he said that he would make me a star
|
|
He said, "You don't have to be that good
|
To make it out in Hollywood
|
You just have to change and complain."
|
Or you'll never, never work in dis bidness again
|
You'll never, no, never, never work in dis bidness again.
|
|
I parked cars at the Rainbow
|
I sold maps of the stars
|
I got my nose broken in Spago's
|
When I puked on the bar
|
|
All I played's a double bar mitzvah
|
Bubba played a double bar mitzvah
|
|
It's a jungle out there
|
We love it
|
Hell, I don't care
|
I'm going back to my predator friends
|
I will never, never work in dis bidness again
|
No, I'll never, no never, never work in this bidness again
|
You'll never, never work in this bidness again.

You'll Never Work In Dis Bidness Again
