Overnight Sensation (hit Record)

(eric carmen)



Well i know it sounds funny

But i'm not in it for the money, no

I don't need reputation

And i'm not in it for the show



I just want a hit record

Want to hear it on the radio

Want a big hit record

One that everybody's got to know



Well the program director don't pull it

Then it's bound to get back the bullet

So bring the group down to the station

You're gonna be an overnight sensation



I've been tryin' to write the lyric

Not offensive but satiric, too

If you can get it in the "a" slot

It's just gotta make a mint for you



And i want a hit record

Want to hear it on the radio

Want a big hit record

One that everybody's got to own



Overnight sensation



I fit the words

To a good melody

Amazing how success

Has been ignoring me so long



I've used my bread

Making demos all day

And writing in the night

While in my head i hear

The record play

Hear it play



Hit record, yeah

Want a hit record, yeah

Want a hit record, yeah

(number one)

Want a hit record, yeah

(number one)
