Lyrics

Sweaty Eddie
Sweaty Eddie!

All of my life
That's what they've called me
And that's what I've been
The blur in the background
The king of uncool
The first at the office
The last in the pool
And it's true
But what can I do?
Tell me, why can't she see?
There's much more to me
Deep within

Picture a guy
A knight in rhinestone armor
Gleam in his eye
A zillion-watt smile
Sharp threads
Moves that get 'em starin'
A turner of heads
Cool beyond comparin'
Bringin' the pride
With a spring in his stride
And a fistful of style

And I
I could be that guy
I could be the cock of the walk
And the talk of the town
Leadin' the pack
When the action goes down
Yeah, I –
I'll betcha I could set the
World astir
If I only let myself try
Well, I could be that guy
For her

Foolish, I know (oh no)
I've never been a charmer (charmer, charmer, charmer)
Just can't let go (ooh let go!)
But if I could
I would show 'em, but good

That I
I could be that guy
I could be the dude all in white
Bathed in light on the floor
Livin' out loud
As the crowd shouts for more
Yes, I
I could holler "yes!" to destiny
Time to step out
No more fear, no more doubt
It's time to grow some wings
And start to fly

Oh, I
I just gotta believe
I just gotta, gotta
Got to believe
If I only believe
If I only believe
That I
Yes, I could be that guy!
I could be the cream of the crop
Set to pop!
All the rage!
Blistering hot
In a spot center stage

Yes, I
I got what it takes
To break away

(Spoken) Ahh, Who am I kidding
I'll always be "Sweaty Eddie"
To her

But before it's my time to die
Hell, I will be that guy
Someday
Ooh, maybe someday
Maybe someday
