making it big

when you make it big
in the music business
booking tour dates all over the USA
and maybe Europe

you live on a bus
clickety clack clickety clack
you try to sleep all day
because you are singing so late into the evening

when you make it big
in the music business
you wear tight fancy uncomfortable clothes
your sequins shine and you shake your tail feathers.

You live on a bus.
clickety clack clickety clack
whereas I get to stay home all day
and wear pajamas
