Kaiser Chiefs - Everything Is Average Nowadays Lyrics

So, everything is average nowadays,
Everything is average nowadays,
But everyone would do it if they can,
But 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
You said that it's too different,
You thought it will be suicide.

There's not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf,
So get your coats, we're leaving,
And just do something else.

Oh, everything is average nowadays,
Everything is average nowadays,
But everything has got no consequence,
Because everyone is sitting on the fence,
And everything will always be the same,
'Cause everything is average now...

You say we didn't need it,
They threw away the book of rules,
They thought that we should read it,
I would even know how to.

There's not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf,
So get your coats, we're leaving,
And 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,
Or a sledge and a hill in heavy weather.

There's not much to believe in
Left up on the shelf,
So get your coats, we're leaving,
And just do something else.

So, everything is average nowadays,
Everything is average nowadays,
But everyone would do it if they can,
But everything is going down the pan,
And everyone is following the craze,
And everything is average nowadays.
