Robert W Service - A Mediocre Man
Work rating: High

I`m just a mediocre man
     Of no high-brow pretence;
A comfortable life I plan
     With care and commonsense.
I do the things most people do,
     I echo what they say;
And through my morning paper view
     The problems of the day.

No doubt you think I`m colourless,
     Profoundly commonplace;
And yet I fancy, more or less,
     I represent the race.
My name may stand for everyone,
     At least for nine in ten,
For all in all the world is run
     By mediocre men.

Of course you`ll maybe not agree
     That you are average,
And unlike ordinary me
     You strut your little stage,
Well, you may even own a Bank,
     And mighty mergers plan,
But Brother, doff your tile and thank
     The Mediocre Man.
