Ego

Take a look at me  now and take a taste of the money 
I'm not in it for the breadI'm in it for the gravy, honey 

Step on the thin ice lightly 

And check out the show twice nightly Oh! 

'Cause I'm 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 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 

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 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 
Oh, childish, foolish, before schoolish 
Immaturish,      lose your coolish 
But I had to grow and prove my ego
