Never The Best
You were always the best
Much better than all the rest
And I was just the other friend
Someone else to talk to at day's end
Of course you'd never say that to my face
And you'd never scorn me for losing another race
But I can hear the things you think
I know how next to you I sink-
When it's just us I feel OK
But then you start to talk about your day
And I know I can't sing, dance or act
I'm not smart, charming nor do I have tact
I don't get as good grades, and I can't seduce the opposite sex
I can't make teachers love me, I can only vex
I can just be me, and I know that's not enough
But it will have to do, 'cause I just can't do stuff
I'll always be just second best
And I'll always have to work harder than the rest
But I will be great
Give me time to compensate
For the talents I wasn't born with
And the ability to be always fifth
So in the mean time I'll watch you succeed
I'll cheer you on, and act surprised when you lead
So just remember that I'm biding my time
And not being the best isn't a crime.
