The Next Big Thing Lyrics - Not So Soft - 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 can he see where he's going 

With those dollar signs in front of 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 eight by ten 

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's 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
