I’m Just a Sidekick (Live)
[JOEY]
It's not fair, It's not fair
I didn't know, I wasn't there
It's not fair, It's not fair
Seeing you lying there

I wasn't strong enough
To save you from the evil stuff
I wasn't smart like you
To do what you would do
I know I'm not a leading man
I know I'm not a star
But I know what makes me special
Is what I feel in my heart

I'm just a sidekick
But I love...
Being at your side

I've been in the shadows for far too long
But I'm the leading man of this song
I was a stupid doofus but now that's gone
I'm ready for a change gonna keep calm and carry on

I know I'm not a pretty boy but I'm a man
I'll find a way to save ya baby, yes I can
Don't confuse the way I was with the way I am
I'm ready for a change gonna take a stand
I'm just a sidekick
Oh yes, I'm just a sidekick
Oh yes, I'm just a sidekick
But I love being at your side

I'm always forgotten, always come in second place
I'll never be a front man 'cause no one can remember my face
If I was in a dinner, I would surely be the less prominent taste

But when I think of how I feel for you
And the love I have inside
I forget about all the things I'm not
And my heart swells up with pride

Am I the strongest? No I'm not
Am I the smartest? No I'm not
Am I the hottest? No I'm not
But am I the greatest? No I'm not
Am I the hero? No I'm not
Am I the one who steals the show? No I'm not
Am I the one who you should know? No I'm not
But am I the one who takes you home? Definitely not!
Am I the chosen one? No I'm not
Am I the prodigal son? No I'm not
Am I almost done? No I'm not
But I'm the one who's gonna love you with
All of his heart because
That's what I've got
I'm the one who's gonna love you with
All of his heart because
That's what I've got

I'm not a great athlete, I'm no good at art
And I know my brain is not my most impressive part
My wand can barely work and my car won't start
But I know what makes me special's what I feel in my heart

I'm just a sidekick
Oh yes, I'm just a sidekick
Oh yes, I'm just a sidekick
But I love, I love, I love!
Being at your side
