The Lyrics

I got the job but not the plan
I got the con but not the man
I got the senate but not the house
I got the cat but not the mouse

But I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind,
hey, but I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind

I got the feet but not the shoes
I got the bulk but not the moves
I got the hand but not the glove
I got the wife but not the love

But I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind,
but hey, I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind

I got the sink I got the faucet
I got the cash I got the profit
I got the ketchup I got the steaks
I got the pull I got tax breaks

I got the meat but not the ball
I got the court but not the wall
I got the tweet but no spell-checker
I got the Paul but not the Pecker

But hey, I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind

Hey-ho, they love the way I do it
Hey-ho, there’s really nothing to it

I got the bluff I got the bully
I got the rope I got the pulley
I got the oval I got the office
I got some wins I got some losses

I got the Mac but not the cheese
I got the cold but not the sneeze
I got the bone but not the spur
I got the bonus I got deferred

But hey, I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
Hey, I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind
I’m big in my mind

The Don is like a B 24 plane - they would fall apart before they got the job done.

You losers' empty skulls are a lot like the White House; I've been occupying them rent-free ever since I got in!
