Totem Pole

Where exactly do I stand today?

Number one in line, or as a backup just in case?

Turns out I'm just one of many chumps

And when you get tired of me, I'll find out I've been bumped

Being part of your rotation makes me feel a little sick

And now I've got the short end of the stick

I did all you asked right from the start

Everything was perfect 'til you had a change of heart

Not going anywhere for anything

Try to send me off, but you're just pushing on a string

And I keep on chasing even while I keep on getting stung

On the bottom rung

Leaving everything behind me

You'll find me down there

I will always be here waiting

As if you even care

I'm going nowhere

And I hate what I've become but I will stay to play my role

At the bottom of the totem pole [x3]

(I'll be there)
