All you little suckers
With your dreams down here
Mama stops payin' and you disappear
Just like that, just like that
Now you gotta find yourself a new career
Sellin' cotton candy in the stratosphere
Just like that, just like that
(Oh, we're pulling out slow)
Mama's waitin'
Mama's waitin', go...
(We really didn't know)
Mama's waitin'
Mama's waitin', go...
(It looked so easy)
You spent so long just talkin'
'Bout your masterpiece
Your dreams up and flew
Like a flock of geese
Just like that, just like that
And where'd they all go?
Like that, just like that
Baby, baby, baby like that
Just like that, just like that
With your dreams down here
Mama stops payin' and you disappear
Just like that, just like that
Now you gotta find yourself a new career
Sellin' cotton candy in the stratosphere
Just like that, just like that
(Oh, we're pulling out slow)
Mama's waitin'
Mama's waitin', go...
(We really didn't know)
Mama's waitin'
Mama's waitin', go...
(It looked so easy)
You spent so long just talkin'
'Bout your masterpiece
Your dreams up and flew
Like a flock of geese
Just like that, just like that
And where'd they all go?
Like that, just like that
Baby, baby, baby like that
Just like that, just like that
