The middle of the road is trying to find me
A G D C
I'm standing in the middle of life with my plans behind me
A G D C
Well I got a smile for everyone I meet

As long as you don't try dragging my bay

Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids

Oh man I don't mean a hampstead nursery

When you own a big chunk of the bloody third world

I can't get from the cab to the curb
A G D C
Without some little jerk on my back

Don't harass me, can't you tell
A G D C
I'm going home, I'm tired as hell
