Lyrics »

My name's Joe I'm the CEO Yeah, I'm the man Makes the big wheels roll I'm the hand on The green light switch You get to be famous I get to be rich Go get me a kid With a good-looking face Bring me a kid Can remember his place Some hungry poet Son of a bitch He gets to be famous I get to be rich Or bring me a girl They're always the best You put 'em on stage And you have 'em undress Some angel whore Who can learn a guitar lick Hey, that's what I call music Well they'll come lookin' for money When the public gets bored But we'll fight 'em with lawyers They could never afford Yeah, I'll make her look Like a spoiled little bitch She gets to be famous I get to be rich Or bring me a girl They're always the best You put 'em onstage And you have 'em undress Some angel whore Could learn a guitar lick Hey, now that's what I call music So burnt-out Johnny Thinks are books are shifty What good's that alchi to me When he's fifty We could move catalog If he'd only die quicker Send my regards to the gig And a case of good liquor He gets to be famous I get to be rich He gets to be famous I get to be rich My name's Joe, I'm the CEO I'm the man makes The big wheels role
