Humdrum

It takes money

To live a life of gold and honey

And it takes time

To commit the perfect crime

I've got neither time nor money

Can't live a life of gold and honey

I am just a routine guy

Trying to reach the finish line

I've got neither time nor money

Can't live a life of gold and honey

I am just an average guy

Couldn't change it if I tried, if I tried

I need a tailor

To overcome this sense of failure

Cause it takes skill

To live a life of pills and thrills

I've got neither skills nor riches

Can't afford the pills and bitches

I am just a so-so man

Holding on to what I am

I've got neither time nor money

Can't live a life of gold and honey

I am just an average guy

Couldn't change it if I tried, if I tried

Common man, I'm just a common man

Common man, I do the best I can

Common man, sometimes I wonder why

Common man, I'm such a humdrum guy

The colour of my life is grey

I'm run of the mill in every way

The world is outside my window

I never go to big shows

I'm average looking and average inside

My whole world is cheaply priced

I get up early, never stay up late

I'm the humdrum guy

I guess that's my fate

Ah, ah

M m-m-m-m-m-m-mediocre

M m-m-m-m-m-m-mediocre

M m-m-m-m-m-m-mediocre

M m-m-m-m-m-m-mediocre

Common man, I'm just a common man

Common man, I do the best I can

Common man, sometimes I wonder why

I'm such a humdrum guy, common man

Common man

Common man

Common man

I wanna have some fun

I wanna be someone

Use your brain

To rid yourself of ball and chain

Be who you are

Not everybody is a star
