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.
