2nd Best

Lately, my insecurity has got me paralyzed
Look in the mirror, It's getting clearer.
I've got those Ed McManoh eyes.
Feelin' humble, just like Barney Rubble
like I'm just a part of someone else's show.
Don't wanna be the guy who has to die,
in the middle of a Star Trek episode.

I don't wanna go on like Frank Stallone...
Don't wanna be second best
I don't wanna be your second best
I don't wanna be your second best

I go to parties, trying to be smart
With praticed lines, I try to show some wit.
No matter how I say it, nobody takes the bait
And I end up in the corner eating chips.
Don't wanna go through life with my rolling 25
Always playing second fiddle to the man
Why can't I be the best? Not like all the rest.
Not the professor, I am Mary Ann.

I don't wanna be like Andrew Wrigley
Don't wanna be second best
I don't wanna be your second best
I don't wanna be your second best
I don't wanna go on like Don Oates
Just second best.

Everytime I turn around, I'm Art Garfunkeled out.
Don't wanna be Second Best
