Well, I really have a shot
So I'm giving it all I've got
This is the break I've been waiting for.
Some say it isn't so great
That it was hardly worth the wait
But at least I finally have one foot in the door.
I'm an understudy to the star of the show
I was once a nobody not a name you would know
Now I'm an understudy to the star of the show.
I've memorized my part
Learned my lines by heart
Gonna walk the script through page by page
Always do my best
And pray that I can stand the test
'Cause I never know when I'll be asked to take center stage
I'm an understudy to the star of the show
I was once a nobody not a name you would know
Now I'm an understudy to the star of the show.
