Trooper – Two For The Show lyrics
Two for the show
And my mother wants to go
It'll break her heart when I tell her
She's too old
I'm in my place
I got makeup all over my face
I think I know my lines
But I dunno
One for the money
Two for the show
Three for the lady on the radio
Four might be the one
You'll never know, you'll never know
If only there was a better way to go {way to go}
Two for the show
Waiting in the wings
While the queen of virtue sings
It'll break her heart when I tell her
She's out of key
If they gave her half a chance
She could soon learn how to dance
So she could earn her living
Gracefully
One for the money
Two for the show
Three for the lady on the radio
Four might be the one
You'll never know, you'll never know
If only there was a better way to go {way to go}
Two for the show

    The song made me cry after my mom died. It made me feel sad before she died too. This song pulled a lot of emotion out of me and my fear of losing my parents. I wondered all these years what comlelled him to write it and if it had meaning for him as well.

    “One for the money, two for the show, three to make ready and four to go” is a nursery rhyme type counting poem which has been used since the 1800s to start kids races, etc. Other than that please reply to this if you know more because I can’t find any lyrics analysis or song background and I’m curious to know more. Thanks.
