Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I'm waitin' at the bus stop in downtown L.A.
Well, I'm waitin' at the bus stop in downtown L.A.
But I'd much rather be on a boardwalk on Broadway
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm sittin' here thinkin' just how sharp I am
Well, I'm sittin' here thinkin' just how sharp I am
I'm an Under Assistant West Coast Promo Man
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Well, I promote groups when they come into town
Well, I promote groups when they come into town
Well, they laugh at my toupee
They're sure do put me down
[Verse 4]
Sittin' here thinkin' just how sharp I am
Yeah, I'm sittin' here thinkin'
Just how sharp I am
I'm a necessary talent behind every rock and roll band
[Verse 5]
Yeah, I'm sharp
I'm really, really sharp
I sure do earn my pay
Sittin' on the beach every day
Yeah
[Verse 6]
I'm real, real sharp
Yes, I am, I got a Corvette
And a seersucker suit
Yes, I have
Here comes the bus
Uh-oh
[Verse 7]
I thought I had it, a dime
Where's my dime?
I know, I know I got a dime here somewhere
