The Ballad Of Orson Welles Lyrics


this is the ballad of orson welles

the man who gave us war of the worlds 

frightened the country 
but ... got all the girls 
oh well 



then he gave us citizen kane 

perhaps the greatest film ever made 

that brought him riches 
and that brought him fame 

nobody was bigger than orson welles 



Chorus
orson welles , orson welles, 
orson welles , orson welles 



i know what you’re thinking - 
keep it to yourself 

someday I’ll be bigger than orson welles

 

got himself a fine black suit 

when he was 45 he wore a 52 

he said pate foie gras 
sure does take it’s toll on you 
nobody was bigger than orson welles 


orson welles , orson welles 
orson welles , orson welle



i see you laughing 
you can go to hell 

someday i’ll be bigger than orson welles.



when i die And i’m at the pearly gates 

i don’t give a damn 
what saint peter has to say.

hey pete. where can i find - the free buffet?

i want to tie one on with orson welles 



orson welles , orson welles 
orson welles , orson welles 


i know what you’re saying 
only time will tell 

someday i’ll be bigger than orson welles 



keep on laughing 
- i hear the dinner bell 

someday i’ll be bigger than orson welles
