| Some have the right connection
|
| Everything they’re touching’s turnin' to gold
|
| Star and car collection at seventeen years old
|
| All my life, I have strived
|
| To do what they do in a day
|
| If you could see what’s surroundin' me
|
| Then you’d know what I say
|
| I have learned now, sister
|
| It’s my turn now, mister
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| I want a piece of the pie
|
| Let me tell ya that
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| I want a piece of the pie
|
| Before I die
|
| It happens in just a minute
|
| Or that what appears to be
|
| But that ain’t why I’m in it
|
| The music’s more important to me
|
| If I could play everyday
|
| And hear 'em singin' along
|
| Then I’d be a rich man, see
|
| 'Cause you’d know my song
|
| Ain’t a lot I’m askin'
|
| Just a shot I’m askin'
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| I want a piece of the pie
|
| Let me tell ya that
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| I want a piece of the pie
|
| Before I die, before I die
|
| Before I die, oh, before I die
|
| Snot-nosed cognate punks
|
| Man, they ain’t got a clue
|
| Wipin' their asses
|
| With my hundred dollar bill
|
| It pisses my off!
|
| I can’t see the attraction
|
| I don’t care how many units you sold
|
| Just gimme that kind of action
|
| All this crap is gettin' way too old
|
| I’m tired of sittin' on the goddamn couch!
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
|
| I want a slice of the pie
|
| Let me tell ya that
|
| I want a piece of the action
|
| I want a piece of the pie
|
| Before I die, before I die
|
| Before I die, before I die
|
| Before I die, before I die
|
| Before I die
|
| Before I roll up, dried-up rotten die! |
