- The Big Royalty Check LyricsI'm waiting
for my royalty check to come,
and it still hasn't come yet.
It's about a year
over due.
I guess it's coming
from the Big Royalty Check in the sky.
I waited and the mailman
never dropped it in my letterbox.
Oh, oh-oh, oh...
I guess it's a Big Royalty Check in the sky.
Oooh baby.
But you can't
beat the tax man
and me
for my royalty check to come,
and it still hasn't come yet.
It's about a year
over due.
I guess it's coming
from the Big Royalty Check in the sky.
I waited and the mailman
Oh, oh-oh, oh...
I guess it's a Big Royalty Check in the sky.
Oooh baby.
But you can't
beat the tax man
and me

When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, The Big Royalty Check by Van Morrison is a deep metaphorical song for the artist's frustrating situation, as he still has not received his royalties and the payment is likened to 'Big Royalty Check in the sky', which is very hard to reach and perhaps even a waste of time waiting for it. The big royalty check lyrics mainly point out the artist's introspection, his angst, despair, heartbreak and at the same time his inspiration.
