Ordinary Man - MIKA

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 drank 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?
