The Next Big Thing

I didn't have to do that you know

I didn't have to show up here

With my vast financial holdings

I could have been basking in the sun in Florida

This is just a hobby for me, nothin' ya hear? A hobby

I used to shiver in the wings

But then I was young

I used to shiver in the wings

Until I found my own tongue

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I knocked 'em dead in Dallas

And I didn't pay my dues

Yeah I knocked 'em dead in Dallas

They didn't know we were Jews

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I'm a fuel-injected legend

I don't wanna be a bore

I just wanna live a rich life

And I wanna die poor

Poor

Poor

Poor

Poor

Poor

Sorry, baby

I just can't get it on anymore

But I won't be happy

Till I'm known far and wide

With my face on the cover

Of the TV Guide

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

All day

'Cause you know, baby, I'm the next big thing

I sock 'em everywhere that I sing

'Cause you know, baby
