Drifting along with his head in the clouds Never had time to get this feet on the ground Thinks he’s got something the world’s needing bad Waits for the real big break that he’s never had
He’s gonna wait forever Can’t accept that he will never make it Just the average life of a daily man
Taking his coffee from people he meets Smiles at the young girl who will buy him his eats Tells her he knows that he will make it soon And when he does he’s gonna buy her the moon
She’s gonna wait forever Wonder if she knows he’ll never make it Just the average life of a daily man
And I’ve got the sense to realize Although he tries with puffed up lies To blind the eyes of friends he’s still a would-be Well he’ll never rise to any heights Try as he might, this world is tight Don’t give no flight on first class seats to would-be’s
He’s gonna wait forever Can’t accept that he will never make it Just the average life of a daily man Average life of a daily man
