Work The Room

(альбом: 15 Minutes - 2011)

Open a door
On the seventeenth floor
Secretary sends me through
Walking right in
With a big time grin
But I'm shaking in my shoes

Suit One shakes my hand
But it takes him a beat to recall my name
Gotta move it along
Gotta play something strong
Gotta show 'em why I came

Work the room
Work the room, baby
Nobody here wants to know you
But tomorrow they'll be talking about you
Work the room

Starting in sweet
With a rocking beat
Show 'em I can really ride
Not about fluff
Get to serious stuff
Here's my softer side

Suit Two frowns
Is it bringing him down?
Or does it mean he's in the groove?
Back to the beat
Activating their feet
See the Pradas start to move

Work the room
They're moving
Oh baby
Watch them beginning to wonder
You can bet tomorrow
They'll have serious hunger
Work the room

Go one step up
Or all the way back
Take the turns
Or jump the track
Rise an inch – or fall for a mile
All the time remember to smile

Stopping the show
But they don't say go
Suddenly smiles all 'round
Man oh man
We're shaking hands
Telling me they like my sound

Big Suit smiling at me
Talking about sales and fame
Everybody's talking to me
Making it like I got it
Dammit now they know my name!

Work the room
They want me
I got it!
You went in an unsung zero
You're coming out a musical hero
Never gonna have to work the room again!
