I'm an Ordinary Man - West End Stars[00:00:00]
I'm an ordinary man[00:00:03]
Who desires nothing more than[00:00:06]
Just this ordinary chance[00:00:08]
To live exactly as he likes[00:00:11]
And do precisely what he wants[00:00:13]
An average man am I of no eccentric whim[00:00:15]
Who likes to live his life free of strife[00:00:20]
Doing whatever he thinks is best for him[00:00:23]
Just an ordinary man[00:00:28]
But let a woman in your life[00:00:33]
And your serenity is through[00:00:37]
She'll redecorate your home[00:00:40]
From the cellar to the dome[00:00:41]
And then go on to the enthralling fun[00:00:42]
Of overhauling you[00:00:45]
Oh let a woman in your life[00:00:48]
And you're up against a wall[00:00:51]
Make a plan and you will find[00:00:53]
She has something else in mind[00:00:55]
And so rather than do either you do something else[00:00:56]
That neither likes at all[00:00:58]
You want to talk of Keats and Milton[00:01:02]
She only wants to talk of love[00:01:04]
You go to see a play or ballet[00:01:07]
And spend it searching for her glove[00:01:10]
Oh let a woman in your life[00:01:12]
And you invite eternal strife[00:01:15]
Let them buy their wedding bands[00:01:18]
For those anxious little hands[00:01:21]
I'd be equally as willing for a dentist to be drilling[00:01:23]
Than to ever let a woman in my life[00:01:26]
I'm a very gentle man[00:01:31]
Even tempered and good natured[00:01:34]
Who you never hear complain[00:01:37]
Who has the milk of human kindness[00:01:39]
By the quart in every vein[00:01:41]
A patient man am I down to my fingertips[00:01:44]
The sort who never could ever would[00:01:48]
Let an insulting remark escape his lips[00:01:51]
Just an ordinary gentle man[00:01:56]
But Let a woman in your life[00:02:02]
And patience hasn't got a chance[00:02:05]
She will beg you for advice your reply will be concise[00:02:08]
And she will listen very nicely and then go out[00:02:11]
And do exactly what she wants[00:02:13]
You are a man of grace and polish[00:02:16]
Who never spoke above a hush[00:02:19]
All at once you're using language[00:02:22]
That would make a sailor blush[00:02:24]
Oh let a woman in your life[00:02:27]
And you're plunging in a knife[00:02:30]
Let the others of my sex tie[00:02:33]
The knot around their necks[00:02:35]
I prefer a new edition of the Spanish inquisition[00:02:37]
Than to ever let a woman in my life[00:02:40]
I'm a quiet living man[00:02:46]
Who prefers to spend the evening[00:02:49]
In the silence of his room[00:02:51]
Who likes an atmosphere[00:02:53]
As restful as an undiscovered tomb[00:02:55]
A pensive man am I of philosophical joys[00:02:58]
Who likes to meditate contemplate[00:03:02]
Free for humanities mad in human noise[00:03:06]
Just a quiet living man[00:03:11]
But let a woman in your life[00:03:17]
And your sabbatical is through[00:03:20]
In a line[00:03:23]
That never ends comes an army of her friends[00:03:24]
Come to jabber and to chatter[00:03:26]
And to tell her what the matter is with you[00:03:27]
She'll have a booming boisterous family[00:03:31]
Who will descend on you uh mass[00:03:34]
She'll have a large Wagnerian mother[00:03:37]
With a voice that shatters glass[00:03:39]
Oh let a woman in your life[00:03:42]
Oh let a woman in your life[00:03:45]
Let a woman in your life[00:03:48]
I shall never let a woman in my life[00:04:03]
