Top Billing

We've got to decide it
There's no way to hide it
My friend, I'll give you your way
But you'll give me mine
We've got to agree on
Those lights up in neon
Our names will grace the doorway
They'll litter and shine
To be working with you again
Is also thrilling
(Oh, thank you, thank you so much)

But you know that my agent
Is gonna insist that I get
Top billing

Oh, well you brought up a question
(I was afraid of that)
If I may, I have a suggestion
(Come in, come in)
Let's solve the problem with our ABC
(ABC's?)
Yes, it's very simple

I make the billing, uhh
Alpha Beti Cali?

Wait, just let me sort that out
ABC, I'm first, who's second? Huh

You know that won't do, pal
With my you-know-who, pal
He's bound to come up
With some contract clause you know
I don't want to bore you
(You're not, this is important)
With things I've done for you
But, my name there on top
Would give my family a glow
To be working with you
Has such a happy feeling
But not when I feel
That my prestige that you are
Stealing
Oh, it's something
It was so, uhh
What is the answer?
Well you know, actually
Well actually my friend
You are a dancer
Could be, well in my time
I've introduced some songs you know
Well, we must find a way of
Rounding off
Instead of this rowdy
Sounding off
Hate to see you
Bounding off alone
To think such a difference should Evolve
Well, there's no kind of problem
We can't solve
Solve it like the gentlemen we are
To me my friend
You're the greatest star
