The Kinks - A face in the crowd
Our star doesn't know who he is anymore
is he the starmaker, the image maker looking for material
or is he just plain boring little Norman after all?
perhaps he should accept that he is a plain ordinary bloke
and not try to be something he is not
(a) face in the crowd
I've got to stop faking it
I've got to start facing it
I'm going to take my final bow
then I'm going to take my place in the crowd
I know I'll get used to it
I've got to stop acting like a clown
I've gotta start facing up to what I really am
I've got to realise I'm just an ordinary man
I think taht I'll just settle down
and take my place in the crowd
I don't want to lie to myself anymore
am I just a face in the crowd, is that all I'll ever be?
I don't want to be anything that isn't really me
Mister, can you tell me who I am?
do you think I stand out
or am I just a face in the crowd?
