Lyrics
Middle Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't have a need to be the best
Don't want to be just like the rest
Just stay who I am
Just an ordinary Middle Man
Give me the happy medium
Don't want to be the one whose leading them
I've got no master plan
Just a simple Middle Man
Standing on a fine line between this and that
Just biding my time waiting for a sign
To tell me that I'm something special
My ideas are mine alone
Not yours, not theirs, but I care
I hurt for you, but not with you
I love that thing that's inside you
But I'm not your fan
I'm a stranger in a strange land
I'm your Middle Man
But I'm not your fan
I'm a stranger in a strange land
I am your Middle Man
