English Beat Big Shot Lyrics

Big Shot lyrics
Songwriters: Charlery, Roger; Cox, Andy; Steele, David; Morton, Everett; Wakeling, David Frederick;

Yes, I've seen you go to work in your big car
Yes, you're fat and can afford to be tasteless

You're a big shot, you want the whole lot
And if I like it or not, you still control me
You tell me what to think and what to be

I like it best in the freezing winter, boy
I like to sneer as I sail past your bus stop
I watch you struggle and it gets me red hot
I wander round in my empty office block

Big shot, I want the whole lot
And if you like it or not, I still control you
I tell you what to think and what to do

So you listen to the smoking industry
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/e/english-beat-lyrics/big-shot-lyrics.html }
You listen to the guys in the factories
You listen to the wealth and the misery
You listen to the power of money

For a big shot who wants a whole lot
And if you like it or not, he'll probably get it
He'll tell you when to beg and when to sit

You look like a government minister
Or a high ranking military officer
I don't think you care, you're just a big shot, yeah

Yes, I've seen you go to work in your big car
Yes, you're fat and can afford to be tasteless

You're a big shot, who wants a whole lot
And if I like it or not, you still control me
You tell me what to think and what to be
