lyrics

The closest he’ll ever get
To a third world country is his own flat
And when he’s out of doors
He wears his sunscreen and his hat

Look inside his wallet we’ll
Find coffee cards he’ll never fill
He likes his paperbacks
Like his trashy cars, all secondhand off Gumtree

You won’t notice him in photographs
Because he isn’t really fat
He’s an average Joe
He’s an average John
You will see him twice on most weekdays
He’s an average Joe
He’s an average John
You will see his face
And then walk away

When he has free time
He’ll sit down and watch channel nine
He wears the same T-shirt
Every day, 'cause one girl said it looks cool

Line up at the door
To be the first to buy a video game from that store
He’ll quote movie lines
To try and make himself look fine

Twisting in his seat
From the Swedish store where he likes to eat

You won’t notice him 'til it’s way to late
Cause he’s trained to act a certain way
By commercial ads
By the fashion fads
He is just a slave
To the greedy banks
By the TV shows
Buy this new smartphone
He is just a pawn
In this system of stashed dough
