The Big Picture

Someone smashed my window, broke into my brand new car last night.
Caught my boyfriend lookin' at another slender pair of thighs.
Gotta make more money. Gotta get, gotta get there faster than the rest.
Knock'em off the ladder if they even seem to stand a chance.

The big picture... got a big white cloud.
The big picture... Is starin' at me, starin' at me.
Who... who... yeah, who... who... yeah... big picture.

Why I feel so threatened that somebody else will take what's mine?
Babe it's only rented, no one really owns the merchandise.
What about what I want? Somehow it got lost somewhere inside.
My mother's on my case. I told her it's my life, well, she just died.

The big picture... got a big white cloud.
The big picture... is starin' at me, starin' at me.
The big picture... on a big blank wall, hey.
The big picture... is starin' at me, starin' at me.
Who... who... yeah... who... who... yeah...
Who... who... yeah... who... who... yeah...
When I can see I'll try again,
(Who... who... yeah... who... who... yeah...)
I've got my paints.
(Who... who... yeah... who... who... yeah...)

The big picture... the big picture... hey.
The big picture... got a big white cloud.
The big picture... yeah, is starin' at me, starin' at me.
The big picture, yeah, on a big blank wall.
The big picture... yeah, is starin' at me, starin' at me.
Got a big, yeah baby, the big, the big, big picture, got a big, yeah, hey.
(The big picture... got a big white cloud.)
Got a big, huge, yeah, is starin' starin' at me.
(The big picture... is starin' at me, starin' at me.)

The big picture, yeah, hey, got a big, got a big, very big, oh yeah.
(The big picture... on a big blank wall, hey.)
The big picture, yeah, got a big white cloud, cloud, big picture...
(The big picture... is starin' at me, starin' at me...)
Big picture, got a big, got a big, yeah baby... The big picture...
