3
For all of those who have dared to try, made it, and lived to tell about it.
4
-- Spoken:
5
"He told it to the monkeys and they didn't talk back"
6
"Then he told the old iguana and he didn't attack"
7
They told me before I started
8
That it never ever would work out
9
Stay in school, don't be a fool
10
But I had to see what life was about
11
So I went to Biloxi seekin' fortune and fame
12
I got hired, I got fired, I got called dirty names
13
You'll never (never), never (never), work in dis bidness again
14
You'll never (never), no never (never)
15
Never work in dis bidness again
16
I knew I needed representation
17
And I found it one night in a bar
18
He was a bondsman and a part-time agent
19
And he said that he would make me a star
20
He said', "Aaaah, you don't have to be that good
21
To make it out in Hollywood
22
You just have to change and complain"
23
Or you'll never (never), never (never), work in dis bidness again
24
You'll never (never), no never (never)
25
Never work in dis bidness again
26
(synth and horn instrumental)
27
I parked cars at the Rainbow
28
I sold maps of the stars
29
I got my nose broke in Spago's
30
When I puked on the bar
31
And all I played's a double barmitzvah
32
(Bubba played a double barmitzvah!)
33
It's a jungle out there (we love it)
34
Hell, I don't care
35
I'm going back to my predator friends
36
I will never (never), never (never), work in this bidness again
37
No I'll never (never), no never (never)
38
Never work in this bidness again
39
You'll never (never), never (never), work in this bidness again
40
-- Spoken:
41
"Ah, relax, vhere do you tink you're going vit dat suitcase?"
42
"I'm outta here!"
43
"You're leaving?! Vat about my fifteen percent?"
44
"Fifteen percent of nothin' is nothin'!"
45
"Young man, you leave now and you'll never..."
46
"I'll never..."
47
"You'll never..."
48
"Work in dis..."
49
"Bizness..."
50
"Bidness..."
51
"AGAIN!!"
