The Average Man Songtext
von Simple Kid

The average man is thirty-five years old
He owns a car but he dreams of a better one
He′s overweight but he's been working on losing some
The average man on the street is not on the street
And he will fall in love at least two times in his life
And he will be unfaithful at least three times
He loves his wife but he sometimes dreams of a better one

Coko, the average man, Koko
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?

The average man will spend three hours watching
Moving images on TV every day
Spends twenty pounds a week on drinking and cigarettes but
The man says he will give up one day
He is unhappy with his general appearance
And will spend over three thousand hours shaving in the mirror
He has a face but he sometimes dreams of a better one


Coko, the average man, Koko
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?

The average man is living for tomorrow
He cannot face his limitations today
Works hard the three to six days of the year
For a two week holiday

I saw on TV about this man from old England
Every day he works seventeen hours
One day he′d come home and shoot both his children
The neighbours said he was an average man

What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?

Coko, the average man
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
What are you looking for, average man?
Ain't nothing average about me, man
