"Average B-side" adalah lagu yang dinyanyikan oleh Robbie Williams yang mengeksplorasi pergolakan emosional dan hubungan yang goyah. Liriknya yang reflektif menceritakan penyesalan, penipuan diri sendiri, dan kerinduan akan hubungan yang lebih bermakna. Melalui metafora tentang "rockercoaster" dan "layar perak", lagu ini memvisualisasikan dinamika hubungan yang penuh gejolak dan akhirnya mengakhiri dengan pengakuan yang pahit bahwa mereka hanyalah "b-side" yang biasa-biasa saja, sebuah sisi yang tersembunyi dan tidak penting dalam kisah cinta.
Average B-side Lyrics
Robbie Williams
You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive
Cause she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I tried to explain
Don't expect you to be the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
I watched the past run by on the silver screen
We played our parts and died, scene by scene
When she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I try to explain
Don't expect you to feel the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side, oh b-side
Pretend you like me
Pretend I like you
Pretend pretend pretend
This is not happening
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride (this is not happening)
We were just an average b-side (this is not happening)
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive
Cause she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I tried to explain
Don't expect you to be the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
I watched the past run by on the silver screen
We played our parts and died, scene by scene
When she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I try to explain
Don't expect you to feel the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side, oh b-side
Pretend you like me
Pretend I like you
Pretend pretend pretend
This is not happening
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride (this is not happening)
We were just an average b-side (this is not happening)
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive
Cause she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I tried to explain
Don't expect you to be the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
I watched the past run by on the silver screen
We played our parts and died, scene by scene
When she said that you said that I said
She said that I said the love's dead
And I try to explain
Don't expect you to feel the same
On this rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side, oh b-side
Pretend you like me
Pretend I like you
Pretend pretend pretend
This is not happening
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride (this is not happening)
We were just an average b-side (this is not happening)
Oh rockin rollercoaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
We were just an average b-side
You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive
