Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sweaty Eddie, sweat 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
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
[Verse 2]
Picture a guy, a knight in rhinestone armor
Gleam in his eye, zillion watt smile
Sharp threads, moves that get 'em starin
A turned of heads, cool beyond comparin'
Bringin the pride, with a spring in his stride
And fist full of style
And I
I could be that guy
I could be the cock of the walk
And talk of the town
Leading the pack when the action goes down
Yeah I
I'll betcha I could set the world astir
If I ever let myself try well, I could be that guy for her
[Verse 3]
Foolish I know
I've never been a charmer
Just can't 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 wings
And start to fly
[Verse 4]
Oh I
I just got to believe
I just gotta, gotta got to believe
If I'd only believe, if I'd only believe that I
Yes I could be that guy
[Verse 5]
I could be the cream of the crop
Set to pop, all the rage
Blistering hot
In a spot center stage
Yes I
I've got what it takes to break away
Oh 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
