| | Big Shot Lyrics Artist(Band):Billy Joel
With your fine Park Avenue clothes You had the Dom Perignon in your hand And the spoon up your nose Ooh, and when you wake up in the mornin' With your head on fire And your eyes too bloody to see Go on and cry in your coffee But don't come bitchin' to me Because you had to be a big shot, didn't cha You had to open up your mouth You had to be a big shot, didn't cha All your friends were so knocked out You had to have the last word, last night You know what everything's about You had to have a white hot spotlight You had to be a big shot last night And they were all impressed with your Halston dress And the people that you knew at Elaine's And the story of your latest success You kept 'em so entertained But now you just don't remember All the things you said And you're not sure that you want to know I'll give you one hint, honey You sure did put on a show Yes, yes, you had to be a big shot, didn't cha You had to prove it to the crowd You had to be a big shot, didn't cha All your friends were so knocked out You had to have the last word, last night You're so much fun to be around You had to have the front page, bold type You had to be a big shot last night, Oh oh Oh Oh whoa whoa oh, Oh Oh whoa who-oo-oo-oo-ah, Oh Oh Oh whoa whoa oh, Oh Oh whoa. Well, it's no big sin to stick your two cents in If you know when to leave it alone But you went over the line You couldn't see it was time to go home No, no, no, no, no, no You had to be a big shot, didn't cha You had to open up your mouth You had to be a big shot, didn't cha All your friends were so knocked out You had to have the last word, last night So much fun to be around (LIVE VERSION ON 3RD CHORUS ONLY: "You know what everything's about") You had to have the white hot spotlight You had to be a big shot last night, Oh oh Oh Oh whoa whoa oh, Oh Oh whoa. Big shot … Big shot … Big shot … Mmmm … Big shot … Whoa whoa! Big shot … Submitted by Michael Hack If you find some error in Big Shot Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about Big Shot Billy Joel, unforgettable | Reviewer: monica | 8/8/09 There was a time when I did not understand all the words of the big shot song, just most, and I always loved it. I have met quite a few people now where the song could have been written about them. Great insight into attention-seeking people... Quality | Reviewer: Kirsten | 4/17/09 I love the quality of his voice! It is almost reedy. My friends and I all love his music and one in particular can sing all the lyrics of all the songs with me. Even the obscure ones. I love this song, it just bursts with feeling. Billy Joel! | Reviewer: Narumi | 1/23/09 I love this song and just about all of his other ones! I'm proud to say I'm a fourteen year old life-long Billy Joel fan! I love his voice and the music is magnificent. I argue with my dad, who is also a huge fan, about the quality of the lyrics, which I believe is very high. Jennifer | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/25/08 This is a really good song of Billy Joels,(all though all his song are good this is one of his best) And It shows how some people just are: selfish, they like alot of attention,and usually they never go far in life, well mostly never. Sincerely, ~Jennifer~ About a Bad date with Micks ex-wife | Reviewer: Richie | 11/9/07 Dont know if this is true but several people claim that this song was based on a bad date that Billy had with Mick Jagger's ex-wife Bianca Jagger. Never heard the song myself, but the description seems to fit her to a T during her Studio 54 days. Dont know if it is true though. :) | Reviewer: Amanda | 6/7/07 I love the line 'and a spoon up your nose'. That makes me smile every time I hear it. Billy's sarcasm and cynicsm is unparalleled. This is such a great song, as are the rest of his songs. a song i can relate too | Reviewer: KAilawyn | 6/1/07 A very true song about people who love attention, his feelings that he explains during the song is something i can definately relate too. brilliant. Billy!!!! | Reviewer: Kenzie | 4/11/07 I LOVE BILLY JOEL!!! His songs are the best. I've listened to his greatest hit CD's so much that now i know almost every word. I'd have to say big shot is my favorite song of his!!
