Sinking fast, hold tight
   Just remember ordinary life
   More trouble, than it's worth
   Know it when you see the sign
   Nothing feels right, step out of line
   Just remember ordinary mind
  
   Nagging wife, starts a fight
   Trying to make you uptight
   Workaholic, on your bike
   Take a look at it in the daylight
   Nothing feels right, step out of line
   Think ordinary mind
  
   Ordinary life, be my rock in times of trouble
   Get me back on the earth
   Put my feet on the ground
  
   Keep on pushing, make it useful
   Do what you've gotta do
   Keep on moving, keep on doing
   Combat ordinary strife
   Need a woman, be my friend
   Understand ordinary life
  
   Ordinary life, be my rock in times of trouble
   Bring me down to earth
   Keep my feet on the ground
  
   Keep on pushing, make it useful
   Do what you have to do
   Keep on working, keep on doing
   Combat ordinary strife
   Need a woman, be my friend
   Understand ordinary life.
