Well, Ive been doodling on this notepad
And I been taking telephone calls
I can tell this jobs at the end of the line
And Im ready for the fall
But I been watchin the boss carefully
And he always seems to be havin a ball
And then I scratch my head and wonder
Why Im down here and hes up the hall
Now, all of my paychecks arent worth
The paper theyre printed on
I get em friday
But monday theyre all gone
There must be some way to change my situation
Its time that I took up a brand new vocation
I wanna take a two-week vacation
Twenty-six times a year, add em up
When I fly to exotic places
My jet will be a lear
Ill need several secretaries
Just to jot down notes
Ill wear gucci loafers
And expensive shirts
And blue, executive, exotic coats
Chorus:
cause i, I said I wanna be a boss
(I wanna be, I wanna be)
I, I said I wanna be a boss
And Ill have people workin under me
And this lousy job Ill toss
I, I said I wanna be a boss
Well, Ill drive in fancy cars
Well, no, maybe Ill just cruise
With a limoccand a chauffeur,
Tv, telephone, and booze
Tinted windows so the common folk
Cant see me here inside
Maybe every now and then for fun
Ill give some old coot a ride
Then maybe Ill slip him
A thousand dollar bill
Then hell smile and shake my hand
And Ill put him in my will
Im gonna count up all my widgets
And digits, and all my stuff
Ill make millions in a day
But itll never be enough
Nopeccnot enough!
Chorus:
cause i, I said I wanna be a boss
And I just wanna take a four-hour lunch
And eat a steak with a1 sauce
I, I said I wanna be a boss
And Ill buy up every stock there is
From itt to doctor ross
I, I said I wanna be a boss
(I wanna be, I wanna be)
Now if I find a product I like
Ill buy up the whole company
Shave my face, and grin and smile
And then Ill sell it on tv
And everyone will know me
Ill be more famous than howard hughes
Ill grow a long beard and watch
Ice station zebra in the nude
And grow my nails like fu-manchu
Keep a row of specimen jars
Get other people to work for meccwell
Maybe Ill buy the planet mars, and
Build an amusement park up there
Better than old walts place
Youll have to be a millionaire to go
Well smoke cigars and lounge in lace
Talk the talk of businessmen
And bosses that we are
So heres to meccthe drinks are freecc
cause I just bought this bar
Yeahccyeah, I wanna be a boss
I wanna be a boss, boss, boss!
Some kinda intergalactic boss!
