Poem
Pick me, pick me, you beg and plead You think that you just what he need Today, you in the game, yea! Today you get to play and that totally made your day But you don't love the game, you love the Coach You're getting a home visit from Coach. Yes, he says he's coming over Wow, you do dumb ssh for love when he's on his way You quickly hide clothes in the other room, you throw stuff here, there You run and tuck and when he's not around, you don't give a pluck Clothes are here, there, everywhere scattered When he's not around, nothing about clothes or your room even matter You think and think and think of him You think of 100 reasons to call him You think of two reasons not to call One, he's not going to answer, two, he's with that witch Why she gotta be a witch? Cause you want her man? There you go, when are you gon learn? Second string on the bench, waiting again for your turn How long will this go on? Will this ever end? You've been waiting for a month for Coach to pick you again..Really? Six weeks have passed, he doesn't even look your way He doesn't give you or your name a call She is staying in the game. Why wait for the starter to get an offside penalty? She's not trying to get no technical or foul out She's playing tackle with him while you playing touch You wait so patiently to get put in But put you in for what? You on the bench and still getting ran over Don't you see, you don't mean what you think you mean to him And no, you're not no challenge or no threat to her But silly ole you, still wanna be part of the team So you try some new plays to impress Coach Of course it's his way, cause when it's all said and done Only the player that's gonna help him win get to stay in the game And one thing I know about the game, you can get cut for no reason There are many others trying out for your spot, but so far There's only the two of you who are actually on the team roster Stop playing second string, second string doesn't get acknowledged Don't get no recognition and you don't get to meet the fam Girl, you're not no second string material, get off the sidelines You are not obligated to stay, you are a free agent You deserve better, dream BIG, become part of a team Where you won't be the Coach's player, you'll be... The Coach's Wife!
