Letra de Piece of the Action
Somewhere, a red-eyed waitress Glances at another movie magazine Down on the corner there's a grocery boy Stuffin' boxes full of hungry dreamsSomeone's cleanin' up the offices One window burnin' in the dark Somebody's cryin', "Is there any way in hell To light a comet from a single spark?"Workin' so hard, I can't remember much About the freedom I been workin' for Felt like a prisoner 'til I looked in your eyes And saw a million wide open doorsYou tell me, "Put a little money away" Well, every dog will have his day in time Well, I been slavin' like a dog and I got nothin' to show you But a collar and a fist full of nickels and dimesI want a piece, a piece of the action Gimme a shot at the real thing I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these stringsBeen livin' just like my old man did And neither one of us could get it right Punchin' in when the day begins And punchin' out the local boys at nightThere's someone leanin' on a peelin' porch And someone leavin' on a silver plane And I finally know the man that I'd rather be And, girl, I won't be back to getcha 'til they know my nameI want a piece, a piece of the action Gimme a shot at the real thing I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these stringsWell, they hand you a paycheck every week And steal a piece of your soul every day And I don't need no gold watch in 50 years Baby, let's be golden todayI want a piece, a piece of the action Gimme a shot at the real thing I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these stringsI want a piece, a piece of the action (piece of the action, piece of the action) Gimme a shot at the real thing I want a piece of the action, and I'm breaking my back Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these stringsI want a piece, a piece of the action Gimme a shot at the real thing I want a piece of the action, a piece of the action Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these strings Gonna turn on the master, gonna cut these stringsSomewhere, a red-eyes waitress Glances at another movie magazine Down on the corner, there's a grocery boy Stuffin' boxes full of hungry dreams
