Barry Manilow 
Lyrics for Song: Studio Musician 
Lyrics for Album: Live In London (With The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra) [2012]
  
               
  20626>I am a studio musician
  We've never met
  But you know me well
 
 
  I am the English horn
  Who plays the poignant counter line
  Upon the song you heard
  While making love in some hotel
 
 
  I am a part of you
  I've never tried for fame
  You'll never know my name
 
 
  I am the strings that enter softly
  Or three guitars
  That glitter gold
 
 
  I am the thousand trumpet lines
  That were an afterthought
  Intended as a way
  To get a dying record sold
 
 
  I never ride the road
  I never play around
  I play what they set down
 
 
  I'm a working musician
  Living from week to week
  I'm the voice through which empty men try to speak
 
 
  A studio musician
  Blowin' the chance I seek
 
 
  And when the woodwind cushion rises
  I start to dream
  On a low brass bed
 
 
  But I awake to horns
  The drummer calls to me
  We're up to letter D
 
 
  I'm a man of the moment
  Pop is my stock and trade
  Singles, jingles, and demos
  Conveniently made
 
 
  A studio musician
  Whose music will die unplayed
  A studio musician
  Whose music could have died unplayed
