Testo Big Shot - Billy Joel
Testo della canzone Big Shot (Billy Joel), tratta dall'album Live Through the Years
Well, you went uptown riding in your limousine
With your fine Park Avenue clothes
You had the Dom Pérignon in your hand
And the spoon up your nose
Ooh, and when you wake up in the morning
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 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 the white-hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot last night, oh, yeah!
Well, they were all impressed with your Halston dress
The people that you knew at Elaine's
And the story of your latest success
Kept 'em so entertained
Oh, 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 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
So much fun to be around
You had to have the front page, bold type
To be a big shot last night, oh
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh
Ain't 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, we had to be a big shot, didn't we?
We had to open up the 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, oh
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh
Big shot, big shot (just one more for the rocker, whoa)
Big shot (one more, one more, whatever)
Big shot (whoa)
Big shot, big shot
Oh, yeah
Come on, come on
Big shot, big shot (one more)
Big shot (one more)
Yeah
