Big Time lyrics

Success

I'm on my way, I'm making it

I've got to make it show, yeah

So much larger than life

I'm going to watch it growing

The place where I come from is a small town

They think so small

They use small words

But not me

I'm smarter than that

I worked it out

I've been stretching my mouth

To let those big words come right out

I've had enough, I'm getting out

To the city, the big big city

I'll be a big noise with all the big boys

There's so much stuff I will own

And I will pray to a big god

As I kneel in the big church

Big time

I'm on my way-I'm making it

Big time big time

I've got to make it show yeah

Big time big time

So much larger than life

Big time

I'm going to watch it growing

Big time

My parties have all the big names

And I greet them with the widest smile

Tell them how my life is one big adventure

And always they're amazed

When I show them round my house, to my bed

I had it made like a mountain range

With a snow-white pillow for my big fat head

And my heaven will be a big heaven

And I will walk through the front door

Big time

I'm on my way-I'm making it

Big time big time

I've got to make it show-yeah

Big time big time

So much larger than life

I'm going to watch it growing

Big time big time

My car is getting bigger

Big time

My house is getting bigger

Big time

My eyes are getting bigger

Big time

And my mouth

Big time

My belly is getting bigger

Big time

And my bank account

Big time

Look at my circumstance

Big time

And the bulge in my big big big big big big big
