I’m an Ordinary Man

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]
