One Trick Pony Holly Cole

[Verse 1]
He's a one-trick pony
One trick is all that horse can do
He does one trick only
It's the principal source of his revenue
When he steps into the spotlight
You can feel the heat of his heart come rising through

[Verse 2]
See how he dances
See how he loops from side to side
Ah, see how he prances
The way his hooves just seem to glide
He's just, just a one-trick pony, that's all he is
But he turns that trick with pride

[Bridge]
He makes it, it look so easy, he looks so clean
He moves like one of God's immaculate machines
He makes me think, think all about all of these extra moves I make
All of this herky-jerky motion and the bag of tricks it takes
To get me through my working day
He's a one-trick pony

[Verse 3]
He's a, a one-trick pony
He either fails or he succeeds, oh yeah
He gives his testimony
Then he relaxes in the weed
He's got one trick to last a lifetime
But that's all a pony needs
