Second Banana |
| May not be the fairest in all the land |
| But if you need the gig done, baby I’m your man |
| I’ll be there when your artist goes beserk |
| Cause the thunder makes the racket |
| But the lightnin' does the work |
| I can get the show on from Altoona to Atlanta |
| Backin' up the front-man, I’m the second banana |
| I’ll listen while you moan about your life |
| Run interference when your girlfriend |
| Meets your next ex-wife |
| Take you to the hotel when it’s a drag |
| And wait out at the airport when they’ve lost your bag |
| I’ll keep track of your man-purse with |
| Your phone and your day planner |
| I can make it happen, I’m the second banana |
| There ain’t much of a market for good ol' boys like me cause when the lights come on We ain’t the ones you paid to see |
| but I can set the gear up and start the show |
| While the big shot is in the lobby selling |
| Swag and snaggin' all your dough |
| I can fake your autograpgh while you’re in your pajamas |
| Sawin' logs in you bus bunk, I’m the second banana |
| I can make a snap decision when |
| they bounce the check in Boise |
| I’m a pretty good technician when |
| Your preamp tubes get noisy |
| Your constructive criticism serves |
| To add to my annoyment |
| But I’ll perform with great precision to provide |
| Sustained employment |
| You can run me hard and put me to the test |
| you can ask for my opinion, but I digress |
| Cause everybody’s got one from Sinatra to Santana |
| Placed strategically behind them just a second banana |
