KINKS - Face In The Crowd lyrics

rate me

Our star doesn't know who he is any<br>More. is he the starmaker, the image<br>Maker, looking for material or is he<br>Just plain boring little norman after<br>All? perhaps he should accept that he<br>Is a plain ordinary bloke and not try to<br>Be something he is not.<br><br>(a) face in the crowd<br><br>I've got to stop faking it,<br>I've got to start facing it,<br>I'm going to take my final bow<br>Then I'm going to take my place in the crowd.<br>I know I'll get used to it,<br>I've got to stop acting like a clown.<br><br>I've gotta start facing up to what I really am.<br>I've got to realise l'm just an ordinary man.<br>I think that I'll just settle down<br>And take my place in the crowd.<br>I don't want to lie to myself any more.<br><br>Am I just a face in the crowd, is that all I'll ever be? <br>Don't want to be anything that isn't really me.<br>Mister, can you tell me who I am? <br>Do you think I stand out<br>Or am I just a face in the crowd?
