Things are changing in the modern world
it makes it kinda crazy for a boy and girl
an awful lot of noise on the radio
it really don't rock; it really don't roll
Well a kid'll come 'round make the young girls swoon
they'll all put his picture in their pink bedrooms
all hail the brand new king
everybody's ready for the next big thing
chorus:
big cigars
diamond rings
ridin' all around in a limousine
when you finally hit the top man you know what that means
everybody's ready for the next big thing
for a little while you can do no wrong
well live it up son cause it don't last long
there's always somebody waitin' in the wings
thinkin' they're gonna be the next big thing
chorus
I'll get a cowboy hat
some real tight jeans
lose a little weight and get a belly button ring
you'd better stand back I'm a lean machine
baby I'm gonna be the next big thing
chorus
