Showbusiness


Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the man on the tv with a phoney smile
Bring you up, bring you down
He can turn your head around
In showbusiness, showbusiness

See the man on a silver screen
With the phoney smile
Bring you up, bring you down
He can turn your head around
Showbusiness, showbusiness

Have a hit, maybe two
Make mincemeat out of you
Come back in two years time
Lay your heart right on the line
In showbusiness, showbusiness
Showbusiness, showbusiness

Wheres the next one, wheres the next one
Wheres the next one
Oh, baby just like the last one
Like the last one

Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the man in the suit
With the phoney smile
He can laugh, he can cry
He can make you reach the sky,
He can say anything you wanna hear
Be anything you wanna be
You can say anything you want to hear
Be anything you want him to be
Make you leave your family
In showbusiness, in showbusiness

Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
How can you do it like the last one
Now do it just like the last one, please
Like the last one, like the last one just like the last one

Say you wanna be in showbusiness
Have a pretty face and a pretty smile
Im thinking
Make you laugh and they can make you cry
But they cant wait, wipe the tear drops from your eye
In showbusiness, showbusiness

Say you wanna be in showbusiness
See the rock star up on the stage
Right now
Behind them drugs, behind them booze
Behind them people he can use
Behind them people usin them
Behind them people usin us
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Can you make it, just like the last one
Oh, you make it just like the last one
Like the last one
Just like the last one

Say you wanna be in showbusiness
All the world is a stage
Everybody must play their part,
Ive been so long in showbusiness
I feel right now just like I got myself just started
Forget the junk, forget the jive
I just want to stay alive
In showbusiness, in showbusiness

Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Oh, just like the last one, just like the last one
Like the last one

They can rob you with a fountain pen
But you got to find some honest men
They can make you leave your home
Where you go to waste and roam
Control your fate, control your life
They can make you leave your wife
Its showbusiness, its showbusiness

Take it to the bridge
And the next one, and the next one
And the next one
Oh, just like the last one, can you make it
Like the last one
Can you give it one more time
Like the last one
Can you put it out, like the last one
Showbusiness, its showbusiness
Its showbusiness, showbusiness
Its showbusiness, showbusiness

Biografia

Morrison va via di casa a 15 anni per intraprendere la sua carriera musicale. Suona in diversi locali con complessi skiffle e rock and roll prima di entrare a far parte del gruppo dei Monarchs, con i quali partecipa ad una tournée in giro per l'Europa. Nel 1964 fonda, infine, il gruppo dei Them del quale diviene il leader. La band raccoglie numerosi successi, il maggiore dei quali è Gloria, che sarebbe divenuto uno degli standard del rock e che verrà incisa da numerosi altri artisti. Morrison diviene sempre più insoddisfatto dell'utilizzo dei musicisti in studio, e lascia la formazione dopo un tour negli USA nel 1966. Ritorna a Belfast, deciso a lasciare il mondo della musica. Il produttore dei Them, Bert Berns, lo persuade a ritornare a New York e a registrare materiale da solista per l'etichetta Bang Records. Da queste prime session emerge una delle sue canzoni più famose, Brown-eyed girl, che raggiunge il numero 10 delle classifiche USA nel 1967. L'album generato da quelle ses
