Woke up this morning, just like every man does

Walked to the bathroom, just like every man does

Made my bed, just like everyone must

Nursed my head just like everyone must

Spent the day playing nina simone

Reorganized every record I own

I see my friends, we drink beer in a can

Half-drunk they smile, "It'll be alright, man"

Just like a king, who's losing his worth

I'm like a snob, who's falling to earth.

Everyone thinks that I'm staying the same

Are they secretly happy that I am in pain?

So you say it's ordinary, love?

That's impossible to do

No such thing as ordinary, love.

I was ordinary just to you.

Does it mean that I'm a regular man

Not as special as I think that I am

As for you, all that I want to know

Did you stay up as I tumbled so low?

Just like a king, who's losing his worth

I'm like the sun, that's fallen to earth.

Everyone thinks that I'm staying the same

Are they secretly happy that I am in pain?

So you say it's ordinary, love?

That's impossible to do.

No such thing as ordinary, love.

I was ordinary just to you.

So you say it's ordinary, love?

That's impossible to do.

No such thing as ordinary, love.

I was ordinary just to you.

If I was ordinary

And love was ordinary

If I was ordinary

Oh so very ordinary

If love was ordinary

And I was ordinary

Are you too?
