If you've got the looks and if you've got the goods I suppose you could make it anywhere you want to get made
And you want to get made
My model agent says, "You gots to get paid!
"You got a special gift, you can't just give it away for free."
I don't give it up for free.
And when my daddy calls to see how it's going on them streets,
All I can say's, "I'm not exactly a salesman... Sure there's a product I'm selling...
"Guess you could say I'm an actor, but acting's not what they're after." No, not quite.
Certain services are popular here, more popular than acting or a modeling career
This city has quite the service industry
Small town Adonis hits the metropolis, brought down to his knees
Guess I'm a so-so gigolo
Every audition my agent commisions
Isn't so much an audition so much as a job
I guess a job's a job
I thought if they just saw how bad I wanted the part, at the very least they'd have to take pity on me
Pity-- a word this city's never heard
So-so gigolo
Not exactly a salesman... Sure there's a product I'm selling... Guess you could say I'm an actor, but acting's not what they're after.
