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

I can just imagine you and me
Running out of steam Going through the motions I have no idea how you know When I dip my toes In other people's oceans You have local knowledge Of the local area And that impressed me quite So I tried that night We did things I thought you'd like But that just made it worse And I impressed you not Well not a lot Slowly starting from the start When the heat dies down I'll be back in town But until that time I'll be round at mine When the heat dies down We'll be back in town But until that time I'll be round at mine When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down I can not imagine growing old To have and to hold Til death do part we told them Right now I can stroll back 20 years Spending time at hers Talking to our mothers I've got wider knowledge of the world I just can't face another argument about the rent, It all seems so important In the grander scheme of things But I was purpose built To not feel guilt Slowly ending at the end When the heat dies down I'll be back in town But until that time I'll be round at mine When the heat dies down We'll be back in town But until that time I'll be round at mine When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down When the heat dies down |

I remember nights when we were young
They weren't very good they were rubbish Running round Highroyds isn't fun Just teenagers testing their courage Standing outside nightclubs in the snow Is not very cool or impressive They let in all the girls from the year below No need for I.D's with those dresses Got news from afar From a girl who knows who we are She's still got my dinner money She can keep it Never had a fight that we haven't lost We're not very tough or athletic Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock And when he gets out I'll regret it Got keys to a car Picked up a girl from Boston Spa For fast food and the cinema It's not worth it Got word from down south Well he had heard about it word of mouth Haven't much stayed in touch Since Highroyds Let it go and let it go And if I'm wrong then I won't know 'Cause no one's gonna tell me but a friend But he has gone and Ian's gone And everybody went along And nobody was left here in the end Got news from uncle Hugh Through a second cousin once removed It's too late there's a housing estate It's called Highroyds Got a text from an ex She wants to know when we're in London next "And will you write a song about me?" I don't think so |

None of the buildings even look the same,
And underneath them all the shops have changed. I don't pretend they're in a lot more pain, Stocking much too young for the professionals to stay in. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I'm in tunnel to the north again Everybody has to talk on the train. And if you've got nothing thats clever to say, Nobody's listening to you anyway. 'Cos I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. But it wouldn't be very good. La la la, la la la la la la la la la~ What you want here? It doesn't matter! I don't think that it can be done without you. What you doing? It doesn't matter! But everything that's done is all about you We convince each other nothing has changed Nobody else will ever write the same We're out of tension thought the stage is not blame For your protection all the names have been changed I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. But it wouldn't be very good |

I won't, be the one to disappoint you, anymore,
I know, I've said all this and that you've heard it, all before, The trick is, getting you to think that all this, was your idea, And that this, was everything you've ever wanted, out of here, Love's not a competition but I'm winning. I'm not sure, what's truly altruistic, anymore, When every, good thing that I do is listed, and you're keeping score, Love's not a competition but I'm winning. Love's not a competition but I'm winning. At least I thought I was, but there's no way of knowing, At least I thought I was, but there's no way of knowing, You know what it's like when you're new to the game but I'm not. I won't, be the one to disappoint you, I won't, be the one to disappoint you, anymore I won't, be the one to disappoint you, I won't, be the one to disappoint you, anymore I won't, be the one to disappoint you, I won't, be the one to disappoint you, anymore I won't, be the one to disappoint you, I won't, be the one to disappoint you, anymore |

Well it starts as a joke
Like a stick in your spokes Or removing the bolt of the brakes Then the bicycle flips Crushing ribs smashing hips And he broke every bone in his face Now you're out of control And you can't fill the hole That was left by the thrill of the chase You're a right piece of work All the flakes go berserk Have you forgotten how good they taste You're my kind of guy Cos I like your style And you sound as horrible as me And I don't mind if you're unkind Cos you're reminding me of me As the bicycle race Gathers speed, gathers pace And you feel that you're going too fast Theres a word to the wise You should take some advice As the nice guys always finish last You're my kind of guy Cos I like your style And you sound as horrible as me And I don't mind if you're unkind Cos you're reminding me of me You're my kind of guy Cos I like your style You sound as horrible as me And heads will roll As it takes it's toll On you and me |

There are many things that I would be proud of
If I'd only invented them such as the wheel The washing machine and the tumble dryer On these inventions surely I could retire I want to retire No longer required I want to get by without the man on my back A tear in my eye With a heart full of pride I must go out on a high And tell nobody why There are many things that I know I could do If I'd only have wanted to, such as create The perfect soulmate everyone would admire On this creation surely I could retire I want to retire No longer required I want to get by without the man on my back A tear in my eye With a heart full of pride I must go out on a high And not to answer to why I want to retire Inform the suppliers I'll leave the party in style And not to be carried out Without a cloud in the sky I Got my fingers in pies A Golden watch on my side Will measure my free time Now my place in History is surely assured I will be remembered here forever more Brand new product in place and a potential buyer Up on this next transaction surely I could retire I want to retire No longer required I want to get by without the man on my back A tear in my eye With a heart full of pride I must go out on a high And not to answer to why I want to retire Inform the suppliers I'll leave the party in style And not to be carried out Without a cloud in the sky I Got my fingers in pies A Golden watch on my side Will measure my free time |

I can't do it any quicker
I don't want it any slicker As far as the eye can see Is miles and miles of icy sea. So try your best And think about it later Or you will never know I don't feel fear anymore But I can't risk getting mauled As far as the ear can hear The wave is coming loud and clear So try your best And think about it later Or you will never know So try your best And think about it later Or you will never know Which way your life could go And you'll know when you know So try your best And think about it later Or you will never know Which way your life could go And you'll know when you know |

Just when you thought it was safe to go
back in the party on your own It's like the night of the living dead With beer in hand and lampshade on head Fast forward two weeks someone's coming up your street Fast forward two weeks what is that is that a rat a tat tat tat Sooner or later there will be a knock at the door now you Won't know what you're doin' or what you're doin' it for And then you say to yourself That guy is everywhere That guy is everywhere That guy is everywhere I was definitely there with you that night when you looked like you had seen a ghost I remember because you turned off the lights and we hid In a pile of coats Now fast forward two weeks someone coming up you're street Fast forward two weeks what was that was that a rat a tat tat tat Sooner or later there'll be a knock at the door but you won't know what your doin' or what you're doin' it for then you say to yourself That guy is everywhere that guy is everywhere that guy is everywhere oh Activated the security light as he came up the garden path we all waited and tried to be quiet and we suddenly heard that rat a tat tat tat Sooner or later there'll be a knock at the door but you won't know what your doin' or what you're doin' it for then you say to yourself That guy is everywhere that guy is everywhere that guy is everywhere Count me out (repeat 11x) Whoah (repeat 9x) |
