Average Man

In my days of fame and fortune
I was totally unknown,
hundreds of fans never wrote to me
and nobody bothered to phone.

Remembered for what I didn’t do
and all the mistakes i’ve made,
but I can have no complaints
for I was never payed.

Not proud of my achievements
I’m doing the best I can,
and from what I see around me
I’m just an average man.Average Man
