He’s a one-trick pony One trick is all that horse can do He does one trick only It’s the principle source of his revenue And when he steps into the spotlight You can feel the heat of his heart Come rising through
See how he dances See how he loops from side to side See how he prances The way his hooves just seem to glide He’s just a one-trick pony, that’s all he is But he turns that trick with pride
He makes it look so easy He looks so clean He moves like God’s Immaculate machine He makes me think about All of these extra moves I make And all this herky-jerky motion And the bag of tricks it takes To get me through my working day One-trick pony
He’s a one-trick pony He either fails or he succeeds He gives his testimony Then he relaxes in the weeds He’s got one trick to last a lifetime But that’s all a pony needs, that’s all he needs
He looks so easy He looks so clean He moves like God’s Immaculate machine He makes me think about All of these extra moves I make And all this herky-jerky motion And the bag of tricks it takes To get me through my working day, One-trick pony One-trick pony
One-trick pony, one-trick pony One-trick pony, take me for a ride One-trick pony
