The music starts
And the crowd grows silent
Anticipation escalates
And hangs tangible in the air

I strut on stage, pause
And strike a pose
As the spotlight glares

She shines in the light

Once again
She steals the show
Director’s little niece

She’ll always be
The number one—
And I’m just number two
