Big Shot
Single room in a cheap part of town
And the elevator's broken down
So I walk up the stairs
No one cares about the rent
When you're playing as little as me
Dirty dishes and a stain on my shirt
I eat alone and I'm out of work
So, tell me what did you think?
I'm the same, haven't changed
Just been going by a different name
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause, I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
I grab the bus from the damp hotel
I grab my things and I'm ready to sell
Them all one at a time (at a time, y'know)
All the things that I loved
All the memories that used to be mine
They're gone, yeah, I sold them away
They're gone, and am I gonna last another day?
Will I last another day?
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
Well, everything is going my way
Ay
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight, yeah
'Cause I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything, everything is going my way
What a relief
And the elevator's broken down
So I walk up the stairs
No one cares about the rent
When you're playing as little as me
Dirty dishes and a stain on my shirt
I eat alone and I'm out of work
So, tell me what did you think?
I'm the same, haven't changed
Just been going by a different name
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause, I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
I grab the bus from the damp hotel
I grab my things and I'm ready to sell
Them all one at a time (at a time, y'know)
All the things that I loved
All the memories that used to be mine
They're gone, yeah, I sold them away
They're gone, and am I gonna last another day?
Will I last another day?
What a waste
Now I'm coming back to say
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight
'Cause I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything is going my way
Well, everything is going my way
Ay
I'm no big shot, big town, big money
Off in my jet flying all around the country
Sometimes when the weather's right
I sail into the ocean staying overnight, yeah
'Cause I went for broke
Since last time we spoke
Now I'm coming back here to say
Everything, everything is going my way
What a relief
