I Got the Callback Lyrics


My name on the frontpage

In bold type, all the time

Till now couldn’t happen

Because you were around

Every time I hear your name

I spit on the ground and swear

That you won’t get in the way

Anymore, you won’t be there

To steal what’s mine

My roles, my life

You’ve gone too far

And now your good luck has expired

A spanner in the works

This is what you won’t be anymore

Step aside, I am the one who got the callback

Let me shine, I am the star today

Had my share of broken dreams

But you don’t know what it means

Many doors slammed in my face

Were because of you, my “friend”

You held me down

You jumped the line

But you played with fire

And your ambition to get higher

You’re paying all at once

Do you want to know what’s going on?
