Mack & Mabel movie - Big Time lyrics

<br>

[Lottie] <br>

This time it's the big time<br>

In a short time we can be<br>

The cherry on the top of the sundae<br>

The shiny star on top of the tree<br>

So you'd better Grab it with your both hands<br>

When that great moment arrives<br>

'Cause this time it's the big time<br>

It's the big time of our lives<br>

<br>

This time it's the extra<br>

It's the special, it's the plus<br>

This time we won't say "those lucky bastards"<br>

This time those lucky bastards are us<br>

Ain't we somethin'<br>

Farewell to the small time<br>

To the flea bags and the dives<br>

' Cause this time it's the big time<br>

It's the big time of our lives<br>

<br>

[Fatty]<br>

I'm gonna buy myself a pierce-arrow<br>

And wave to all my fans in the streets<br>

[Mabel] <br>

I'm gonna have a mansion like Pickford's<br>

[Lottie] <br>

I'm gonna sleep on black satin sheets<br>

[Frank, Kleiman& Fox]<br>

And we'll raise more hell, make more hay<br>

Than decent fellows should<br>

Because the gang from king's highway<br>

[All] <br>

Is goin' to Hollywood!<br>

'Cause this time it's the big time<br>

And it's high time we were seen<br>

By ev'ry dapper dude in Dakota<br>

On ev'ry scroungy neighborhood screen<br>

So you'd better Grab it with your both hands<br>

When that great moment arrives <br>

'Cause this time it's the big time<br>

It's the big time of our lives!<br>

<br>

This time it's the big time<br>

In a short time we can be<br>

The cherry on the top of the sundae<br>

The shiny star on top of the tree<br>

So you better grab it With your both hands<br>

When that great moment arrives<br>

'Cause this time it's the big time<br>

It's the big time of our lives<br>

In each hundred million<br>

There's a handful that survives<br>

And this time we're that handful<br>

So it's bye bye to those one-nights<br>

This time it's the kleig lights<br>

It's the big, big, big time of our lives<br>

<br>

<br>
