Singer Not the Song

[Bridge 1]

Somewhere in the chorus

Somewhere in the verse

You’re boxing for the glory

Fighting for the purse

Somewhere in the chorus

Somewhere in the verse

Things get better before they get worse

[Verse 1]

I’m not the bass player or the drummer in the band

I don’t do much by the microphone stand

Hanging round the back stage, sharpie in my hand

It’s all I ever do, it’s hard to understand

[Hook]

Singer in the spotlight

Dancer in the moonlight

Someone to love somewhere tonight

[Chorus]

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

The singer, not the song

Your heartfelt entertainer

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

Singer, not the song

I’m here to serenade ya

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

A modest troubadour

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

I sing and nothing more

[Verse 2]

I’m the player, not the game

The player, not the game

I watch them come from near and far

She don’t remember my name

Remember my name

No one gives a damn who you think you are

[Bridge 2]

Somewhere in the chorus

Somewhere in the verse

Some days the band refuse to rehearse

Somewhere in the chorus

Somewhere in the verse

Everyday’s a blessing, never a curse

[Hook]

Singer in the spotlight

Dancer in the moonlight

Someone to love somewhere tonight

[Chorus]

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

The singer, not the song

Your heartfelt entertainer

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

Singer, not the song

I’m here to serenade ya

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

A modest troubadour

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

I sing and nothing more

(Interlude)

[Hook]

Singer in the spotlight

Dancer in the moonlight

Someone to love somewhere tonight

[Chorus]

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

The singer, not the song

Your heartfelt entertainer

I’m the singer, not the song, yeah

Singer, not the song

I’m here to serenade ya

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

A modest troubadour

I’m the singer, not the song

The singer, not the song

I sing and nothing more
