Sidekick

It's not fair
Its not fair
I didn't know
I wasn't there
Its not fair
Its 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
I'm just a sidekick
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
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 am 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 got!
I'm the one who's gonna love you with all of his heart because... That's what ive got!
I'm not a great athlete, I'm no good at art
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
I'm just a sidekick
I'm just a sidekick
But I love, I love, I love being at your side
