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
