You Are the Average

Careful of the friends you have Remember you can choose You may not like their attitudes But in time you'll share their views Everything gets past around From attributes to vice If you accept their company You'll soon take their advice You are the average Of the five people With whom you spend most of the time You are the average You only know what you've been taught You think your culture's thoughts You look around the place you work With an expression of disgust At people who you'll never be There's no one you can trust But take a look from a little bit up You already look the same You're blending in quite perfectly You fit inside the frame You fit inside the frame You are the average Of the five people With whom you spend most of the time You are the average You only know what you've been taught You think your culture's thoughts Even you ambitions What you want from life Can be enabled or destroyed By your husband or your wife Your friends can help you be a better person Or lead you on the path to sin You might think you can rise above it But in time you will sink in In time you will sink in You are the average Of the five people With whom you spend most of the time You are the average You only know what you've been taught You think your culture's thoughts
