Average People

George S. Clinton

[Verse 1]
Oh, we used to laugh a lot
Living each day as it came
No, we didn't have a lot
Just love and time
But I guess that's all behind us now
I sit before the TV screen
Silently staring into space
While you re-read your magazine
And the bottom is painted all over our face

[Chorus]
Tell me when did we become such average people
And when did love become an everyday thing
Life was so much fun when we were living together
But as soon as we put on the rings, everything changed

[Verse 2]
What a lovely memory
All those tender nights we knew
When I held you so close to me
We seem like one, but I guess that's over and done
Because now, we simply say 'good night'
And then we turn our separate ways
To dream of what it could be like
With somebody else taking each other's place

[Chorus]
Tell me when did we become such average people
And when did love become an everyday thing
Life was so much fun when we were living together
But as soon as we put on the rings, everything changed

[Outro]
Tell me when did we become such average people
Tell me when did love become an everyday thing
Life was so much fun when we were living together
Tell me when did we become such average people
Tell me when did love become an everyday thing
