Average Person Lyrics
"Average Person" (Capo: 5th. fret)
____Intro:
____Prelude: 1
Look at the average person,
Speak to the man in the street.
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?
Doo-doo-doo-doo__________,
Doo-doo-doo__________, doo-doo-doo-doo.
____Verse: 1
Well, I'm talking to a former engine driver, (dri_ver)
Trying to find out what he used to do.
Tells me that he always kept his engine (en_gine)
Spit and polished up as good as new.
but he said his only great ambition
was to work with lions in a zoo
(oh, to work with lions in a zoo?)
Yes, dear, you heard right,
told me his ambition was to work with lions ev'ry night
Na__na, na-na-na-na,
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
____Prelude: 2
Look at the average person,
Speak to the man on the beat.
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?
Ee-ee-ee--ee__________,
Doo-doo-doo__________, doo-doo-doo-doo.
____Verse: 2
Well, I met a woman working as a waitress, (wai_tress)
I asked exactly what it was she did.
Said she worked the summer crowd at seasides, (seasides)
Winter time she ran away and hid.
Once she had a hollywood audition
but the part was given to a kid.
(Yes, the part was given to a kid)
Yes, sir, you heard right,
Hollywood ambition made a starlet grown up overnight-ee.
Na__na, na-na-na-na,
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
____Guitar solo: 1
Oo____________Oo______________
I know someone, an engine driver,
Oo______________________
I know someone who'd been a boxer,
Oo______________________
I know for sure, I know,
I know that they are super!
____Verse: 3
Well, I bumped into a man who'd been a boxer, (bo_xer)
asked him what had been his greatest night.
He looked into the corners of his mem'ry, (mem'ry)
searching for a picture of the fight.
but he said he always had a feeling
that he lacked a little extra height.
(could have used a little extra height)
Yes, mate, you heard right,
He always had a feeling that he might have lacked a little height.
Na__na, na-na-na-na, ee__
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
