Bigtime Operators Lyrics - Van Morrison

Well, they told me to come on over 

I made my way to New York 

And they tried to have me deported 

Stop me from getting work 

Blacklisted me all over 

They were vicious and they were mean 

 

They were big time operators 

Baby, on the music business scene 

 

Oh, they looked like politicians 

But underneath they were thugs 

And they spread malicious rumors 

Threatened to have me busted for drugs 

They had nothing on me 

Oh man, I was really clean

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

But they were big time operators 

On the music business scene 

 

They put a bug in my apartment 

To listen in on my calls 

I was looking for some motivation 

I couldn't find any, any motivation at all 

They were very desperate people 

Ridin' in long black limousines 

 

But they were big time operators 

On the music business scene 

 

They were glorified by the media 

They were heroes who had names 

They said that they would bury me 

If I didn't play their game 

They said I didn't know the score 

And that I was young and green 

 

They were big time operators 

On the music business scene 

 

Tried to hold me to a phony contract 

I said, I didn't agree 

Had to get out of their clutches 

Had to go underground, you see 

Now I'm livin' in another country 

But I know exactly just where I've been 

 

Stay away from big time operators 

Baby, on the music business scene 

 

Well, baby, big time operators 

On the music business scene 

 

Oh baby, big time operators 

On the music business scene 

 

Well, full of names and places 

Baby, you know who I mean
