Star of the Night

Performed so very well Told in a convincing way Believed by everyone you tell Bored by everything that rolls off your tongue Tired of watching and listening Hating the fact that I'm attending another rerun I wish I was home watching tv so I could turn the channel cause I'm tired of the same thing Put together and staged so nice No wonder why you're the star of the night Your performance was sad and pitiful But only I knew that it was a bunch of bull The curtains came down and the announcer came He called the category's name Then the winner's name I knew it was you But nobody else knew You see, I know all about you And the games you pull All else taken by surprise When announced you're the winner for best lie All others clap and stand As I sit face in hand Do me a favor and don't shout me out Just watch as I walk out And wave goodbye, slowly To this beautiful gown and forever me
