Stage Fright

Now deep in the heart of a lonely kid Who suffered so much for what he did They gave this plough boy his fortune and fame Since that day, he ain't been the same See the man with the stage fright Just standing up there to give it all his might And he got caught in the spotlight But when we get to the end You want to start all over again I've got fire water right on my breath And the doctor warned me I might catch a death Said, "you can make it in your disguise Just never show the fear that's in your eyes" See the man with the stage fright Just standing up there to give it all his might He got caught in the spotlight But when we get to the end He wants to start all over again Now if he says that he's afraid Take him at his word And for the price that the poor boy has paid He gets to sing just like a bird, oh, ooh Your brow is sweating and your mouth gets dry Fancy people go drifting by The moment of truth is right at hand Just one more nightmare you can stand See the man with the stage fright Just standing up there to give it all his might And he got caught in the spotlight But when we get to the end He wants to start all over again You want to try it once again Please don't make him stop Let him take it from the top Let him start all over again --- Stage Fright - The Band
