AJR - Big Idea lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I've seen almost every side of the industry

Except the side we've been workin' seven years to see

Just some kids with pro tools and a mic and a big idea

But no IDs, so while it seems it wasn't an option

You can learn that deejays only bended the genre

And we're dreamin' of Bahamas, so pass round the bottle

Good music still good even if no-one is watching

(Chorus)

Now you're on top of the world tonight

You can do anything you like

And through that struggle we made a start

You can do anything you want

And we're just children in a world of diversion

Tryna stick it to the man before we're grown

And through that struggle we made a start

You can do anything you want

(Post-Chorus)

Pro tools and a mic and a big idea

Pro tools and a mic and a big idea

(Verse 2)

John's too big to fail, make it superstar

His label was doin' their thing, and we were doin' ours

Champagne at the discotheque, I was feelin' kinda alone till I heard that track

Go! And now we celebrate, if only for today

No story's a fairy tail, I dunno if I'll make it

But we're not too big to fail!

(Post-Chorus)

(Bridge x2)

And we're just children in a world of diversion

Tryna stick it to the man before we're grown

(Post-Chorus)

(Chorus)
