Lyrics

take a look at me now and take a taste of the money, i'm not in it for the bread i'm in it for the gravy, honey, step on the thin ice lightly, and check out the show twice nightly, 'cause i'm on the stage tonight, and if the price is right, i will amaze before the light i crave the light, blinding white i need the light tonight, take a look at me now and take a look at my billing, i'm not in it as an extra, i'm in it for the killing, inflate my ego gently, tell them heaven sent me, 'cause i'm so expressive and i'm so obsessed with my ego, my ego and it's message, oh inform the press, invite the guests, i need the press tonight, do you remember acting out your youth, a romeo resplendent on an orange case, do you remember how i would recite, and how i'd blow my lines and hide my face, well maybe it was childish, foolish, before schoolish, immaturish, lose your coolish, but i had to grow and prove my ego, take a look at me now and take a taste of the money, i'm not in it for the bread i'm in it for the gravy, honey, inflate my ego gently, tell them heaven sent me, oh 'cause i'm so expressive and i'm so obsessed with my ego, my ego and it's message, oh inform the press, invite the guests, i need the press tonight
