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 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 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
|
|
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (big shot)
|
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!
|

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
