Put on your coat put on your hat
Step out the door find you're tumbling down the steps of life
You want to make a difference but a fact's a fact
You got too many things upon your mind
You want to make it big but you're playing for time
Can't forgive the life you live
And if you had a choice you'd fulfill your wish
Coz just an average man
Do the best I can I go to work everyday
Collect my pay save it all up for another grey day, another great day
What the hell can I say, I can't go back to sleep
All because I wake No what they say, skies are grey Another great day
You know its here to stay
Working up sweat for the ones you adore
Complicated circumstances often occur
Push them to the side let yourself be heard
Headache, heartache make or break
Who gets the biggest slice of the cak
Day after day, night after day For your pay just another day
Coz just an average man
Do the best I can I go to work everyday
Collect my pay save it all up for another grey day, another great day
What the hell can I say, I can't go back to sleep
All because I wake No what they say, skies are grey
Another great day
To get the things you want out of life
You know the score you know the price
A list of priorities you got to get right
Decision, decisions make those decisions
No need to look back there aint no forgiving
There aint no forgiving, there aint no forgiving
That's right Just an average man
Do the best I can I go to work everyday
Collect my pay save it all up for another grey day, another great day
What the hell can I say, I can't go back to sleep
All because I wake
Know o what they say, skies are grey
Another great day You know its here to stay
