You're the very best, a big fish in a small pound
When you listen to your mom she's always yelling
Get a job, can it really be that hard?
To live among the stars
You're gonna win an Emmy, an Grammy and an Oscar
But you gotta be the best before you start
And then the world is upside down wondering how to get out

Everybody wants that big record deal
No one wants to pay their dues
But soon you're gonna rise above all the rest
And everyone will know that you're the best

You're gonna start a band
You bought your first guitar
You listen to your dad's Led Zepelin records
You're gonna be a star
But you gotta work hard
And then your world is upside down wondering how to get out

Everybody wants that big record deal
No one wants to pay their dues
But soon you're gonna rise above all the rest
And everyone will know that you're the best
The best, the best, the best

Then we broke down and we're gonna say goodbye
Than the band broke up cause everybody change their minds
and the radio DJ found a song he likes
So the music stands alive

Everybody wants to call you their friend
Where were they when you began?
they said you would never make it now they are obsessed
And everybody knows that you're the best

Everybody wants that fortune and fame
No one wants to pay their dues
But you, you're gonna rise above all the rest
3X Everybody knows know that you're the best,
the best, the best, the best
Everybody knows know that you're the best
