Lyrics
Sideman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He won't but then again he might
Changes colour overnight
Agrees with everything you say
Just as looking as he gets paid
He's the sideman
Sideman
Watch you back man
He's at your side man
A smiling face for every place
Politesse and mannered grace
Acting out his chosen role
Never let him get too close
He's the sideman
Sideman
Watch you back man
He's at your side man
Nothingness behind his eyes
Always centered on the prize
Snide behind the winning smile
Always goes to extra mile
He's the sideman
Sideman
Watch you back man
He's at your side man
Blind ambition, empty words
Platitudes so well rehearsed
A perfect dinner guest I'm told
A liar with a plastic soul
He's the sideman
Sideman
Watch you back man
He's at your side man
