Default Who sings this song??

I think the name is "Your Average Man" but maybe not. A friend said Reel Big Fish but it just doesnt sound like them, and after looking through their song listings I didnt see it, so who is it?

Listen to it in this web cartoonhere at something aweful.com

Any help would be appreciated....

Reel Big Fish did do a song but it's called just Average Man.

If that doesn't sound like the one your looking for, then try this one:

Obie Trice also did a song called Average Man.

And I haven't heard it but I saw this one too:

Turns out it IS Reel Big Fish - or a version of their song - but very likely them, judging from that 'mario' vid. (not a big fan or anything, but it does sound like them to me)

Reel Big Fish - Average Man Lyrics

I just became a member of a club known as the bumbling fools
Botching the game and the best things in life is the motto and
the rule
So if you can open up your heart and hear me out just for
tonight
Baby I got something to prove to you
I've gotta show you I can do it right

[Chorus:]
Get out
Don't want to see you again
Maybe we can still be friends
I know that I'm gonna go and screw it up in the end
But that's okay cause I'm your average man

So I turned tail and ran
And I know you're not my biggest fan
But whatever you want me to
You know that I'm gonna do it now or do the best that I can
So if you can open up your heart and hear me out just one more
time
Baby I've got something to say to you
I was wrong and the fault is mine

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Baby you could do a whole lot better
But you could definitely do a whole lot worse
How can I even try to do better
If you won't give me a chance to be better first

[Chorus]

PS - before finding the lyric via google.com (search: "lyrics average man") I was thinking:
Randy Newman (on steroids)
or
A bad cover of something Billy Joel wrote for money
