Woke up this morning just like every man does
walked to the bathroom just like every man does
made my bed just like every man must
nursed my head my head just like every man must
spent the day playing Nina Simone
reorganized every record i own
i see my friends
we drank beer in a can
half-drunk they smile, it'll be all right man
just like the king who's losing his worth,
i'm like a snob 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,
but that's impossible to do
[there's] 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 the 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,
but that's impossible to do
no such thing as ordinary love
I was ordinary, just to you
so you say it's ordinary love,
but that's impossible to do
no such thing as ordinary love
i was ordinary just to you
oh if love is ordinary
so very ordinary
if life is ordinary
oh just so ordinary
if I am ordinary
and our love was ordinary
are you too?
