I feel like a pinball in a pinball machine

I always end up in the hole

The lights keep on flashing

If you know what I mean

But I always end up in the hole

This life I made ain't near

What I expect

You see I paid my dues

Now when do I collect

I wanna piece of the action

I wanna slice of a pie

I wanna get on the fast track

And kiss all of this goodbye

It's time for uppin' the ante

It's time for raisin' the stakes

I got the looks and the talent

I got whatever it takes

I started out in the gutter

I made it up to the street

I got my eye on a penthouse

A neat little penthouse suite

I'm gonna go for the glory

I'm gonna shoot for the moon

I wanna piece of the action

And I'm gonna get it

I'm gonna get it soon

Yes, I feel it comin'

I feel it comin' this time

And no one can stop me

Nothin' can stop me, now

And I got it comin', this time

And all those two bit tricks

Can take a walk

I got dreams as big as New York

I wanna piece of the high life

I wanna taste of the cream

I wanna play in the big leagues

And be on the winning team

I'm gonna go for the glory

I'm gonna shoot for the moon

I wanna piece of the action

And I'm gonna get it I'm gonna get it soon
