Star of the Show

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
 I don't play second fiddle in nobody's band
 And I'm no back up singer and I won't be a fan
 And I'm nobody's co star
 I just play leading rolls
 And I don't want the part, don't want a part
 Won't play a part unless it's star of the show
 Oh, she's stealing the show that's been so dear to my heart
 She's changing our song 'til I'm not sure of my part
 She sharing the spotlight and there's 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's always some new act somewhere up the road
 And I'll always be staring in somebodies' show
 I don't play second fiddle in nobody's band
 And I'm no back-up singer and I won't be a fan
 And I'm nobody's co-star
 I just play leading rolls
 And I don't want the part, don't want a part
 Won't play a part unless it's star of the show

 If I don't star in your show
 Well I'm still a star and I can still go
 You know I got to be, I got to be the star of the show
