The Opener (Bonus Track) |
| Ladies and gents, well I take no offense |
| No, I’m not who you’re here to see |
| And it won’t be long till the headliner’s on |
| And then you’ll be done with me |
| So don’t rack your brain, no you’ve not heard my name |
| Or a single song of mine |
| And if you need to go potty, well it’s out in the lobby |
| But I’d go now while there’s still time |
| 'Cause I’m the opening act, don’t get much time |
| Maybe four tracks or five at best |
| So I play only songs that I hope make you long |
| To go out and buy the rest |
| And it is okay if I choose to be shameless |
| 'Cause tonight I’m not getting paid |
| So as soon as I’m able I’ll be out by my table |
| Telling you about my MySpace |
| Well, I wish I could say with the truth on my face |
| That the reason I’m here tonight |
| Is 'cause they like my songs and they just can’t go wrong |
| Without the opening I provide |
| But the truth is I’m cheap, and I don’t take much space |
| Because it’s just me and my guitar |
| So when I get to the solo, well I’m up here alone |
| So I’ll just have to whistle that part |
| Yeah, I’m the opening act, don’t get much time |
| Maybe four tracks or five at best |
| So I play only songs that I hope make you long |
| To go out and buy the rest |
| And it is okay if I choose to be shameless |
| Did I mention I’m not getting paid? |
| So as soon as I’m able I’ll be out by my table |
| And if you buy a CD, well you’re enabling me |
| To put bread on my plate, take my wife on a date |
| Well, I better stop now before you tune me out |
| But don’t forget about my MySpace |
