Big Shot

Gran Golpe

Big Shot

Bueno, fuiste al centroWell, you went uptown
En tu limusinaRiding in your limousine
Con tu ropa fina de Park AvenueWith your fine Park Avenue clothes
Tenías el Dom Perignon en tu manoYou had the Dom Perignon in your hand
Y una cuchara en tu narizAnd a spoon up your nose

Cuando te levantas por la mañanaWhen you wake up in the morning
Contigo cabeza en llamasWith you head on fire
Y tus ojos demasiado sangrientos para verAnd your eyes too bloody to see
Ve y llora en tu caféGo on and cry in your coffee
Pero no vengas quejándomeBut don't come bitching to me

Porque tenías que ser un pez gordoBecause you had to be a big shot
Usted no?Didn't you?
Tuviste que abrir la bocaYou had to open up your mouth
Tenías que ser un pez gordo, ¿no?You had to be a big shot, didn't you?
Todos tus amigos fueron tan noqueadosAll your friends were so knocked out

Tuviste que tener la última palabra anocheYou had to have the last word last night
Sabes de qué se trata todoYou know what everything's about
Tenías que tener la luz blanca del punto calienteYou had to have the white hot spot light
Tuviste que ser un pez gordo anocheYou had to be a big shot last night

Todos quedaron impresionadosThey were all impressed
Con tu vestido HalstonWith your Halston dress
Y las personas que conociste en Elaine'sAnd the people that you knew at Elaine's
Y con la historia de tu último éxitoAnd with the story of your latest success
Los mantuviste tan entretenidosYou kept them so entertained

Pero no, simplemente no lo recuerdasBut not you just don't remember
Todas las cosas que dijisteAll the things you said
Y no estás seguro de querer saberAnd you're not sure that you wanna know
Te daré una pista, cariñoI'll give you one hint, honey
Seguro que hiciste un espectáculoYou sure did put on a show

Sí, sí, tenías que ser un pez gordoYes, yes, you had to be a big shot
Usted no?Didn't you?
Tenías que demostrárselo a la multitudYou had to prove it to the crowd
Tenías que ser un pez gordo, ¿no?You had to be a big shot, didn't you?
Todos tus amigos fueron tan noqueadosAll your friends were so knocked out

Tuviste que tener la última palabra anocheYou had to have the last word last night
Eres muy divertido estar cercaYou're so much fun to be around
Debías tener la portada en negritaYou had to have the front page, bold type
Tuviste que ser un pez gordo anocheYou had to be a big shot last night

Bueno, no es un gran pecado meter tus dos centavosWell, it's no big sin to stick your two cents in
Si sabes cuándo dejarlo soloIf you know when to leave it alone
Pero pasaste la líneaBut you went over the line
No podías ver que era hora de ir a casaYou couldn't see it was time to go home

No, no, no, no, tenías que ser un pez gordoNo, no, no, no, you had to be a big shot
Usted no?Didn't you?
Tuviste que abrir la bocaYou had to open up your mouth
Tenías que ser un pez gordo, ¿no?You had to be a big shot, didn't you?
Todos tus amigos fueron tan noqueadosAll your friends were so knocked out

Tuviste que tener la última palabra anocheYou had to have the last word last night
Eres muy divertido estar cercaYou're so much fun to be around
Tenías que tener la luz blanca del punto calienteYou had to have the white hot spot light
Tuviste que ser un pez gordo anocheYou had to be a big shot last night
