Big Shot
( T. Paronis / Ph Allaert / J. Kuoko
Tepco Publishing / Groove Maniac Publishing / )

I’m a big shot baby, show me where it’s at
I’m a big shot baby, show me where it’s at

You’re sitting there smiling like a Cheshire cat
But you don’t wanna show me where you’re sweet thing’s at
Gonna’ build us a bridge to the other side
Where everything is cool and everything is fly

CHORUS

Got a tanker full of oil off the African coast
Gonna get it down in China in a month at the most
Got some condos down in Panama, they’re lookin’ real slick
My man on the inside says they’re gonna move quick
Gonna’ build us a bridge to the other side
Where everything is cool and everything is fly

SOLO

Got some solar panels headed for a mayor in Peru
Gonna make me nice and green between me and you
Gonna’ build us a bridge to the other side
Where everything is cool and everything is fly

CHORUS

SOLO AD Libs
