A Permanent Shadow - Humdrum Lyrics

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
