  • Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
    Everything is average nowadays
    Everything is average nowadays
    Everyone would do it if they can
    And everything is going down the pan
    And everyone is following the craze
    And everything is average

    Now you say it's getting better
    But I don't really see the signs
    Said it is too different
    You thought it would be suicide

    Not much to believe in
    Left up on a shelf
    So get your coats we're leaving
    We'll just do something else

    Ohhhh everything is average nowadays
    Everything is average nowadays
    And everything is of no consequence
    'Cos everyone is sitting on the fence
    And everything will always stay the same
    'Cos everything is average

    Now you said you didn't mean it
    You threw away the book of rules
    You thought that we should read it
    I wouldn't even know how to

    Not much to believe in
    Left up on the shelf
    So get your coats we're leaving
    We'll just do something else

    All I need is a ball and a wall
    Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather
    All I need is a ball and a wall
    A sledge and a hill in heavy weather

    Oh oh oh oh etc.

    Not much to believe in
    Left up on the shelf
    So get your coats we're leaving
    We'll just do something else

    Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
    Everything is average nowadays
    Everything is average nowadays
    Everyone would do it if they can
    And everything is going down the pan
    And everyone is following the craze
    And everything is average nowadays Writer/s: ANDREW ROBERT WHITE, CHARLES RICHARD WILSON, JAMES RIX, NICHOLAS BAINES, NICHOLAS HODGSON
