He made the news today for the first time on page three.
Left the local supermarket job in sale and figures.
Makes a treat each week, tomorrow sits at home.
He'd be such a lovely boy if he'd only leave the girls alone.
You could see it in his face each time he ran away.
CHORUS
It was a ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
VERSE 2
Bathroom porcelain and handles made of brass.
Took the proper grooming and full year language class.
They're sure he's the guy to snatch them from this scene
and take them to some place they're sure their mother's never been.
You could see it in his face as the colour drained away.
CHORUS
It was a ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
A ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
A ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
BRIDGE
Cold evenings create a living room dance.
Spend late nights revolving around one lost chance.
Oh yeah.
REPEAT INTRO CHORDS

They're gonna jump the train it's the last one today.
Join us in the back row of the ones that got away.
Join a big parade, it works for you and me.
And you'll add a thrill because you'll hear it on TV.
Throw it up against the wall just to see how far it falls.
CHORUS
'cause it's a ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
A ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
A ba-ba-ba-ba-ba big opportunity.
