Well you went uptown riding
In your limousine
And your fine Park Avenue clothes
You had the Dom Perignon
In your hand
And the spoon up your nose
Whoo and when you wake up
In the morning
With your head on fire
And 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 a
White hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot
Last night whoah oh
They were all impressed
With your Halston dress
And the people that you knew
At Elaine's
And the story
Of your latest success
Kept them so entertained
Oh but now you just
Don't remember
All the things you said
And 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
You had to be a big shot
Last night
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Well
it's 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
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 a
White hot spotlight
You had to be a big shot
Last night whoah oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Big shot
Big shot
Big shot
Big shot
