How Big Can You Get?
How big can you get,
Can you get,
Can you get.
How big can you get,
Aren't you big enough yet?
So why are you stretchin up taller than tall
For the bigger you get, the harder you fall
Oooh
How rich can you get,
Can you get
Can you get
You're gonna regret,
Yes, the richer you get
Remember the more that you're achin to make
It's the dough you forget
The government takes
It's true, it's true oh
What are you to do
You multiply
But you can't take it with you when you die
How big can you get
Can you get
Can you get
The bigger you get, ooh, the more you upset
The more you upset
Makes the more that you fret
How big can you get
How big can you get
(Spoken)
Say jack you can never wear more than one suit at a time,
An' wearin' one pair of shoes, that aint no crime,
Who d'ya wanna be bub?
Gugenheim?
A hotdog only costs that cada dime
If you'd rather be a Duke or Grand Marquis
Well you see the latest movies the same as he
They all listen to the radio an' all for free
I'm askin you, Bub
How big can you be?
How big can you get,
Can you get,
Can you get.
How big can you get,
Aren't you big enough yet?
So why are you stretchin up taller than tall
For the bigger you get, the harder you fall
Oooh
How rich can you get,
Can you get
Can you get
You're gonna regret,
Yes, the richer you get
Remember the more that you're achin to make
It's the dough you forget
The government takes
It's true, it's true oh
What are you to do
You multiply
But you can't take it with you when you die
How big can you get
Can you get
Can you get
The bigger you get, ooh, the more you upset
The more you upset
Makes the more that you fret
How big can you get
How big can you get
Can you get,
