The Next Big Thing Lyrics

Ani Difranco

Hello, it's me I'm returning your call It's Monday, Wednesday, Friday Between noon and three
He says I usually just let the phone ring But I've always got a minute of time For the next big thing
And I wonder how he can see where he's going With those dollar signs in his eyes I say, "Thank you for your interest But my thing is already just the right size"
Hello, it's me Yes, I'll play for the door Nothing more on a Tuesday
He says, "Baby, what is your name? I forgot" He says, "Baby, tell me again Are you really hot?"
And I think he does not hear what I'm saying He's just looking at my 8x10 And wondering about the part that was left out Does she have a body that will really draw them in?
How much do you want? How much are you willing to do? Baby, this is no business For a sweet little girl like you
Can you play the game Act it out frame for frame? Do you know your lines? Let me hear them one more time
But I'd rather pay my dues To the six people sitting at the bar Than to all those men in their business suits Who say, "I'll take you away from this if you'll just get in the car"
