Lyric Big Shot
A-one, a-one-two
It s like, it s like, it s like, it s like, it s like...
CHORUS
Everybody wants to be a big shot
Everybody wants to make a quick buck
Everybody wants to be on the top
Everybody wants to be...
(repeat)
Just like me, just like me
The S to the A to the L to the fa-sol-la T s makin dough
(Nuts?) No, but as in big bucks
So (huh?), so (who?), so what the hell
It doesn t matter who goes n buy my records long as they sell
And I can tell that you don t like me very well
Pop-popular hit, pop hits is makin my pockets swell
And makin me a little rich now (yeah, baby)
You ain t seen nothing if you think that I m a bitch now
Check it out, check it out
Just watch me, just watch me
I wasn t tryin to be a hooker sellin pootang
Up and down the block just ain t my thang
I seen a lot of women fall and gettin fast money
Cuz either AIDS or jail will get that ass, honey
I needed more to explore so I tried rap
Now in 1993, I m livin mack stack
Check my attitude it comes with the territory, baby
And now I m drivin niggas crazy
CHORUS
Everybody wants to get paid, paid like a Lou Mays
Poppin that coochie or sellin fake Guccis
Whatever s in style and costs some big ?
Just to get one, niggas get a real five
It s all about the great paper chase
A million dollars worth of whip appeal could even buy Babyface
So read me all the rules so I can have my money right
Cuz I m a new lady boss keepin game tight
So, you think you re all that, feelin kinda phat
But can you see where the wrong is?
I, I don t know much about ya
But there s no doubt you re out to get yours anyway you can
CHORUS
[You know what? I can t stand them Salt-N-Pepa bitches
They think they re all that cuz they re popular in Europe
Yeah, probably sell-out hookers
Oh, oh, and they swear everybody want to be like them
Please, I don t wanna be like them bitches
I know - live in a big house and have all them bills and headaches and stuff
Oh, and Spinderella
Nah, nah, nah, she s cool, it s them other bitches I can t stand
(So I m a bitch now?)
Oh, Sue, there they go, right there Salt, Pepa!
(Sometimes I be buggin because I m rich now)
Yo, Pepa, can I get your autograph for my son?
(Well, I don t need nothin cuz you know that I m a bitch, y all)
Yo, y all s hair is real fly, where d ya all get your hair done at?
(You say, "oh, ain t she somethin " because I m rich now
And I ll bet you wanna be like me)
Still can t stand them bitches
(Because I m rich, y all, and I m a bitch, y all
A rich bitch, y all, and I know)]
