Open a door
On the seventeenth floor
Secretary sends me through
Walkinâ right in
With a big time grin
But Iâm shakinâ in my shoes
Suit One shakes my hand
But it takes him a beat to recall my name
Gotta move it along
Gotta play somethinâ strong
Gotta show âem why I came
Work the room
Work the room, baby
Nobody here wantâs to know you
But tomorrow theyâll be talkinâ about you
Work the room
Startinâ in sweet
With a rockinâ beat
Show âem I can really ride
Not about fluff
Get to serious stuff
Hereâs my softer side
Suit Two frowns
Is it bringinâ him down?
Of does it mean heâs in the groove?
Back to the beat
Activatinâ their feet
See the Pradas start to move
Work the room
Theyâre movinâ
Oh baby
Watch them beginninâ to wonder
You can bet tomorrow
Theyâll have serious hunger
Work the room
Go one step up
Or all the way back
Take the turns
Or jump the track
Rise an inch â or fall for a mile
All the time remember to smile
Stoppinâ the show
But they donât say go
Suddenly smiles all âround
Man oh man
Weâre shakinâ hands
Telling me they like my sound
Big Suit smilinâ at me
Talkinâ about sales and fame
Everybodyâs talkinâ to me
Makinâ it like I got it
Dammit now they know my name!
Work the room
They want me
I got it!
You went in an unsung zero
Youâre cominâ out a musical hero
Never gonna have to work the room again!
