Lyrics Average Man - Turin Brakes

Average Man

If I was a farmer instead of a faker
If I was a realer, not just some raker
Raking through a memory
That doesn’t belong to me
Just someone I could have been
If I only kept walking
Have another drink my son
Enjoy another cigarette
'Cos it’s time you realised
You’re just an average man
Alone on a motorway you catch you’re breath
Cat’s eye’s lead everyway to lonesomness
Since you learn to hide your fears
And downsize your dreams
Still alive, still sincere
Inside the scheme
Have another drink my son
Enjoy another cigarette
'Cos it’s time you realised
You’re just an average man
And if this is darkness here
If this is darkness… coming
Have another drink my son
Enjoy another cigarette
'Cos it’s time you realised
You’re just an average man
