The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
A common fruit, a common fate, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
His name, a stain, the Common Man's ill fame.

Today, he swells like emptiness in sacks of skin,
The system shifts, from cup to bowl, within.
Today, he swells like emptiness in sacks of skin,
The system shifts, from cup to bowl, within.
Behold, the grand and sprawling,
Yet tiny, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
A common fruit, a common fate, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
His name, a stain, the Common Man's ill fame.

A fine here, work elsewhere, a cap upon a throne,
A fine here, work elsewhere, a cap upon a throne.
What of this land, my friends? The leader's path unknown.
What of this land, my friends? The leader's path unknown.
He stumbles, dazed and dizzy,
And sleeps, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
A common fruit, a common fate, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
His name, a stain, the Common Man's ill fame.

Each soul, a victim of the state's hard rod,
Each office, a stage where power plays God.
He grinds on, inch by inch, on roads of dust,
He grinds on, inch by inch, on roads of dust.
Behold, the grand and sprawling, yet
Tiny, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
A common fruit, a common fate, the Common Man.
The Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man, the Common Man,
His name, a stain, the Common Man's ill fame.
