Where the Long Line Leads

Well, the line was so long I had to see where it led myself
 Pretty sure that I could feel what the think pieces said they felt
 At least enough to follow the night's conversation
 At a party full of fellow wanna be sensations
 Saying that's what's going on and if you don't wanna be left behind
 Be the next jam pumping in the background of everybody's grind
 Streaming out of the windows of whatever we're driving
 So that when we show up
 It sounds more like we're arriving at the big time
 We wanna have a big time
 We're gonna have a big time
 Where the long line leads
 We only have a short time
 So make it a big one (ooh, ooh)
 And instead of the list, you'll be on the marquee
 Smoke rising from the ashes where the long line leads
 Well, sign me up, tell me every last thing I'm gonna need to change
 So no think piece can feel that I was ever any other way
 And when they say I've hit my stride, I'll be ready to strut
 Which foot you think'll look best in front of the other?
 Dance, dancing up a hill to houses, you can see from miles around
 Sure, a quake will probably take 'em, but we chance it to impress this town
 To become one of the angels who have earned their wings
 Flapping madly, so they don't become the last big thing at the big time
 We wanna have a big time
 We're gonna have a big time
 Where the long line leads
 We only have a short time
 So make it a big one (ooh, ooh, ooh)
 In the flames where we go to show off and be showed
 Like it isn't what we're doing but how many other people know
 ♪
 I'm gonna hit the big time
 And when I hit the big time
 Y'all are gonna have a big time
 Where the long line leads
 It might be a short time
 But it's gonna be a big one
 Gonna shake ya like the Big One
 We're having us a big time
 And we're gonna have a big time
 Showing everyone our big times
 On our little feeds
 We only have a short time
 But we're making it a big one (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
 'Til none of us have waited in a line so long
 Or so loudly told so many that's what's going on
 Or so quietly wondered why we didn't feel the heat
 Smoke rising from the ashes where the long line leads
 Oh-oh-oh
