Big Shot

(专辑： Very Necessary - 1993)

A-one, a-one-two
It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like...

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

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

[Salt:]
Just like me, just like me
The S to the A to the L to the fa-sol-la T's making 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 making my pockets swell

And making 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 trying to be a hooker selling pootang
Up and down the block just ain't my thang
I seen a lot of women fall and getting fast money
'Cause either AIDS or jail will get that ass, honey

I needed more to explore so I tried rap
Now in 1993, I'm living mad fat
Check my attitude it comes with the territory, baby
And now I'm driving niggas crazy

Everybody wants to be a big shot (Yeah, yeah)
Everybody wants to make a quick buck (It's all about me!)
Everybody wants to be on the top (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Everybody wants to be

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

[Pepa:]
Everybody wants to get paid, paid like a lewd maid
Popping that coochie or selling fake Gucci
Whatever's in style and costs a big pile
Just to get one, niggas get a real file
It's all about the great paper chase
A million dollars worth of whip appeal could even buy Babyface
So meet me on the rooftop and have my money right
'Cause I'm the new lady boss keeping game tight

[Spinderella:]
So, you think you're all that, feeling 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 any way you can

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

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

(You know what? I can't stand them Salt-N-Pepa bitches, boy
Oh, me neither!
They think they're all that 'cause they're popular in Europe
Yeah, probably sell-out hookers
Oh, oh, and they swear everybody want to be like them
What?! 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
I know... Nah, nah, nah, she's cool, it's them other bitches I can't stand)

(So I'm a bitch now?)
Oh, shoot, there they go right there! Salt, Pepa!
(Sometimes I be bugging because I'm rich now)
Yo, Pepa, can I get your autograph for my son?
(Well, I don't need nothing 'cause you know that I'm a bitch, y'all)
Yo, y'all's hair is real fly, where'd y'all get y'all 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)

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
