Piece of the Action Lyrics

Some have the right connection
Everything they're touching's turnin' to gold
Star and car collection at seventeen years old
All my life, I have strived
To do what they do in a day
If you could see what's surroundin' me
Then you'd know what I say
I have learned now, sister
It's my turn now, mister

I want a piece of the action
I want a piece of the pie
Let me tell ya that
I want a piece of the action
I want a piece of the pie
Before I die

It happens in just a minute
Or that what appears to be
But that ain't why I'm in it
The music's more important to me
If I could play everyday
And hear 'em singin' along
Then I'd be a rich man, see
'Cause you'd know my song
Ain't a lot I'm askin'
Just a shot I'm askin'

I want a piece of the action
I want a piece of the pie
Let me tell ya that
I want a piece of the action
I want a piece of the pie
Before I die, before I die
Before I die, oh, before I die

Snot-nosed cognate punks
Man, they ain't got a clue
Wipin' their a****
With my hundred dollar bill
It p***** my off!
I can't see the attraction
I don't care how many units you sold
Just gimme that kind of action
All this c*** is gettin' way too old
I'm tired of sittin' on the g****** couch!

I want a piece of the action
Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
I want a slice of the pie
Let me tell ya that
I want a piece of the action
I want a piece of the pie
Before I die, before I die
Before I die, before I die
Before I die, before I die
Before I die
Before I roll up, dried-up rotten die!
