(For all of those who have dared to try, made it and lived to tell about it.)

He told it to the monkeys and they didn't talk back

Then he told the old iguana and he didn't attack

They told me before I started

That it never ever would work out

Stay in school, don't be afool

But I had to see what life is about

So I went to Biloxi seeking fortune and fame

I got hired, I got fired, I got called dirty names

You'll never never work in dis bidness again

No you'll never, no never

Never work in dis bidness again

I knew I needed representation

and I found it one night in a bar

He was a bondsman and a part time agent

And he said that he would make me a star

He said, "You don't have to be that good

To make it out in Hollywood

You just have to change and complain."

Or you'll never, never work in dis bidness again

You'll never, no, never, never work in dis bidness again.

(INSTRUMENTAL)

I parked cars at the Rainbow

I sold maps of the stars

I got my nose broken in Spago's

When I puked on the bar

All I played's a double barmitzvah

Bubba played a double bar mitzvah

It's a jungle out there

We love it

Hell, I don't care

I'm going back to my predator friends

I will never, never work in dis bidness again

No, I'll never, no never, never work in this bidness again

You'll never, never work in this bidness again.
