We sang a love song the day that we met You thought that we made the perfect duet You liked my performance so you wanted to know If I would stay on as the star of the show And beautiful music we made for a time 'til she changed our tune And you added new lines Our duet arrangement became a trio Now you want a star, but I just think you should know Chorus:
I don抰 play second fiddle in nobody抯 band And I'm no back-up singer and I won抰 be a fan And I'm nobody抯 co-star I just play leading rolls And I don抰 want the part, don抰 want a part Won抰 play a part unless it抯 star of the show
Oh, she抯 stealing the show that抯 been so dear to my heart She抯 changing our song 'til I抦 not sure of my part She sharing the spotlight and there抯 not room for both Now one or the other is the star of the show, the other goes
Life is a show and the show will go on The world is stage, loves an act we perform There抯 always some new act somewhere up the road And I抣l always be staring in somebodies' show
Repeat Chorus Twice
If I don抰 star in your show Well I抦 still a star and I can still go You know I got to be, I got to be the star of the show
