Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't have a need to be the best

Don't want to be just like the rest

Just stay who I am

Just an ordinary middle man

[Verse 2]

Give me the happy medium

Don't want to be the one who's leading them, no, no

I've got no masterplan

Just a simple middle man

[Verse 3]

Standing on a fine line between this and that

Just biding my time, waiting for a sign

To tell me that I'm something special

Well, well

[Verse 4]

My ideas are mine alone

Not yours, not theirs, but I care

I hurt for you, but not with you

I love the thing that's inside you

[Verse 5]

But I'm not your fan

I'm a stranger in a strange land

I'm your middle man

[Verse 6]

But I'm not your fan

I'm a stranger in a strange land

I am your middle man

Middle man

I'm not your fan

I'm just a middle man

Just an ordinary man

I've got no masterplan

Just to be who I am

Just a middle man
