The Big Time/Piece
Of Mind
Produced By Andy Wolff
Arranged by The Resinators
Both these songs were featured on our second single.
"The Big Time" takes our Hometown Band to greater heights and modest fame. This song was covered by the late-great Terry Agombar. He actually recorded his version before ours!
"Piece Of Mind" is about all the B.S. regarding social justice, reality T.V. shows and world politics.

I read the news today, looks like we're on our way
Keepin' the wheelson the road ahead
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
AND WE AIN'T GOING JUST GET FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
BUT JUST A LITTLE LESS THAN A HOUSEHOLD NAME
It's hard to get a gig in this town, some people try to keep us down
Saying we we don't got that sound, to bring everyone around
I guess it's time we show them
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
AND WE AIN'T GOING JUST GET FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
BUT JUST A LITTLE LESS THAN A HOUSEHOLD NAME
I was on the radio, promoting our next big show
Saying what we like to play, and how we do things our own way
By playing songs of our own
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
AND WE AIN'T GOING JUST GET FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME
CAUSE WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE BIG TIME
BUT JUST A LITTLE LESS THAN A HOUSEHOLD NAME

Another murderer got off again
When is it going to change, tell me when
I WAS A STALKER OF SERIAL KILLERS, A HERO WITH A GUN
I TRACKED THEM DOWN AND TORTURED THEM
I LAUGHED WHEN THEY TRIED TO RUN
I'D SHOOT THEM DOWN, ONE BY ONE
I HAD, PIECE OF MIND
IT'S SO, HARD TO FIND
ANYTHING, LET BEHIND
IT'S JUST A, PIECE OF MIND
It seems that Hollywood has gone to rust
Most of the new shows have bitten the dust
I PLAYED A CHARACTER ON A, T-V REALITY SHOW
AND WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR THE VOTE
I WAS THE ONE THAT HAD TO GO
I HAD TO ACT LIKE I DIDN'T KNOW
I HAD, PIECE OF MIND
IT'S SO, HARD TO FIND
ANYTHING, LET BEHIND
IT'S JUST A, PIECE OF MIND
I WAS A COUNTRY'S PRESIDENT, OUT ON A WORLD PEACE TOUR
MEANWHILE BACK IN MY HOMELAND
THERE WAS AN OUTBREAK OF CIVIL WAR
WHY, I DIDN'T KNOW FOR SURE
I HAD, PIECE OF MIND
IT'S SO, HARD TO FIND
ANYTHING, LET BEHIND
IT'S JUST A, PIECE OF MIND
...PIECE OF MIND
...PIECE OF MIND
...PIECE OF MIND
