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
